"Iolite" gemstone of the Vikings -

When Leif Eriksson and the other legendary Viking explorers ventured far out into the Atlantic Ocean, away from any coastline that could help them determine their position, they had a secret gem weapon: iolite. The Viking mariners used thin pieces of it as the world's first polarising filter. Looking through an iolite lens, they were able to determine the exact position of the sun even in the fog, and navigate their way safely to the New World and back.

Who created the Cowboy Code or Cowboy Commandments in response to his young radio listeners aspiring to be just like Him?

1. The Cowboy must never shoot first, hit a smaller man, or take unfair advantage.
2. He must never go back on his word, or a trust confided in him.
3. He must always tell the truth.
4. He must be gentle with children, the elderly, and animals.
5. He must not advocate or possess racially or religiously intolerant ideas.

General Discussion / Re: Cars or Cargo Ships on Global Warming

« on: May 25, 2008, 07:14:08 am »

Aren't cars a bigger polluter over all?

I'm not sure, ships unlike cars are basicly monitered by somewhat transparent accountable agencies even our own eyes. Cruse Liners or land locked Ships use a totaly diffrent fuel source "No. 4 or No. 5 Fuel Oil" which is monitored because we can see them there within our boundries. The offshore "Cargo Ship" using the "Bunker C"  fuel is the worse of the worse and who monitors this 200 miles offshore let alone 1000's of miles offshore, NASA or ESA and there affiliates .... maybe. The asid rain cargo ships create from the Sulfer Dioxide or NOx Gas cannot be disputed there smoke stackes are only hundreds of feet off the ocean, why are coral reefs dying, why are kelp beds disappearing ....... I don't know why, but PH changes have remarkable effects on many things and possibly our oceans. I was told many years ago about some WMD's ........ from some expert government officials that didn't pan out, trust is hard to find these days

Re HHO

http://msgboard.snopes.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=56;t=002848;p=0

Be nice if it was true … but it takes as much electricity to create the so called HH0 as the energy produced. 
The link describes it in nauseating detail.  Sorry.

Well alot has happened sense the blog that you have shared that's over two (2) years old, many dedicated people have made a lot of improvements and have working models of HHO devices.

Here is the fox video the blog refers to -

With the cost of all fuel rising every day what are you doing to cope with this problem? Any comments on alternative fuel sources you may be experimenting with like Gasification or HHO system projects for your vehicle? If you have oil heat what are you going to do this winter? At this point we all need solutions.

General Discussion / Cars or Cargo Ships on Global Warming

« on: May 20, 2008, 01:57:41 pm »

Granted cars today do pollute but so do other things we don't see everyday.

Ocean Going Cargo Ships use the dirtest fuel on the planet period known as "No. 6 Fuel Oil" or more common "Bunker C Oil", 45,000 to 27,000 ppm of Sulfer Dioxide thats 2.7 to 4.5 % a stagering amount with no restrictions at all. Simular fuels used on land are max. 25 ppm to be decreased to 15 ppm by 2012. Sulfer Dioxide is the leading cause of "Asid Rain" thats going on in Asian Shipping lanes today ontop of the largest ECO system of the world, with the added green house gasses they create destroying our oceans very life.

One Ship -
1) uses between 25 and 100 gal per min at a idle
2) they carry between 1,000,000 and 3,000,000 gal of "DIRTY" fuel
3) 24 hours of operation is equal to between 300,000 and 500,000 average midsize cars of pollution
4) there are over 20,000 ships operating at any given time worldwide
5) thats between 6,000,000,000 and 10,000,000,000 average midsize cars of pollution in 24 hours.

So the next time you by something not from the USA and it could have been shipped here via the Sea, whats the real cost? That compact flourescent lamp from Asia that saves you $2.00 over 5 years is it really worth it.

I know that the little country that only has bananas could be crushed by changing this cheep I mean really cheep fuel source but this all needs to be put into prespective.
