WASHINGTON – Reversing a ban on oil drilling off most U.S. shores, President Barack Obama on Wednesday announced an expansive new policy that could put new oil and natural gas platforms in waters along the southern Atlantic coastline, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and part of Alaska

What the hell? I HOPE this isn’t the type of CHANGE we’re going to get from Obama. Maybe I was wrong to expect anything more from a black guy.

If any of my readers know a way I can get in touch with him directly I would appreciate you letting me know. I know I can get my drilling evidence in front of him personally (instead of filtered through the corporate whores that separate government from the public) he couldn’t ignore it.

Thanks.

Letters to the editor like this make me happy. Maybe there is hope for this country after all.

Vail Daily letter: Strong feelings about SUVs

Are you aware that millions and millions of innocent men, women and children are dying on this planet every single day, just so you can live in million dollar condos and drive around in luxury vehicles?

How can anyone argue with that?

I know I haven’t been posting much lately, but that doesn’t mean I have stopped caring. I’ve weathered some personal storms and now that things at GranolaFag HQ seem to be settling down I hope to get (back) into a regular posting habit.

Firstly, I haven’t stopped pursuing my drilling theory, which only seems to make more and more sense to me as time passes. I’ve been in contact with some professors at local universities and with the mainstream press, but they’re all apparently too afraid to touch this so it’s up to me to shoulder this burden. I should be used to the by now, anyway.

Secondly, during my hiatus America managed to finally get rid of George Bush and elect a long-overdue black man. I cannot begin to describe how happy this makes me. I once again have hope for our future.

So much of the environmental movement is made up of little people doing little things to make the world a better place that sometimes we can’t see the forest for the trees, so to speak. The big-name guys like Greenpeace, the ELF, and the JMMMO get a ton of good press (despite the corporate-controlled media’s hatred of them) but the little guy who works hard to make a difference often goes unnoticed. That’s why I’ve decided to periodically recognize “Everyday Heroes,” people that deserve recognition.

The first in this series is a guy from Texas who runs a site called marmay.net. He has done an excellent job of documenting his progress installing a hydrogen fuel cell in his personal automobile. The difference is he’s doing a “homemade” system that doesn’t cost thousands of dollars. He is very thorough and seems very smart. He isn’t deterred by the fact that “mainstream science” says what he is doing is impossible, he’s showing “mainstream science” that he knows better.

Thank you, guy from Texas. The world is a better place because of you.

I have an idea that I think could help save our planet.

As we all know, most global warming is caused by rednecks driving giant gas-hogging SUVs. You and I can drive as many sensible vehicles as we want, but it will barely make a dent in the damage these guys cause. I live in Louisiana, so I know a thing or two about rednecks. I know the one thing rednecks like more than giant trucks. Answer: Going fast.

So how do we convince these Neanderthals to give up their Hummers and drive something reasonable and green? We let them go fast. We should make it a law that SUVs have a universal speed limit of 50MPH while hybrids, scooters, Segways, and other eco-friendly vehicles are allowed to go as fast as they want on the Interstate.

I don’t want any money for my idea (although I should patent it) I just want recognition as the guy that saved billons of lives by fixing global warming.
