Don't confuse them.

Last time I looked polyester has a very low CO2 emission profile.

Thought you'd like to know that.

You and Kirkland are fucking dumb asses. He is decrying the evils of petroleum, and you're sticking up for him with shit science. Do you know how much petro it takes to make any sort of plastic. Lets discuss the energy and petro it takes to fuel and lubricate the machines. Very low huh?

You both are such dunces of the third order.

Do you know? Why don't you illuminate us and tell us exactly how much.

I'll wait.

No.

Alarmists are Alarmists.

Hell, I've never even said that I don't think there might be a problem. It's entirely possible. Looking unlikely at this point, but certainly possible.

Alls I'm saying is that when the politics of the matter outpace the scince at such an alarming clip that someone says "you owe me money for spitting up carbon," it's time to back the truck right the fuck on up.

I'm also all about alternative fuels and all that jazz. Except just about all of the alternatives I've heard to date are fucking retarded.

I recycle milk jugs at a crazy clip, even though I know I'm hurting, not helping the problem... I just hate to see them go to the landfill (which the one around here will be full to the brim sometime in... two-thousand-never).

I'm all about change for the better. And once we get the fucking politicians and bureaucrats and their junk-science minions out of our way, we can do just that.

Must be a sweet landfill you've got going in the U & L. Viable landfills are a major concern around these parts, because everybody has that NIMBY mentality. Pretty much every dump in the KC area has been closed except for the Deffenbaugh landfill in Shawnee, and those fukkers are making cash hand over fist allowing other trash hauling outfits to dump there.

The good news? It's in Kansas.

Pretty much.

There's this place to the east called "the desert," and that's about what it's good for.

I think they opened it about 20 years ago or so. About 150 miles away or somewhere in there, and train tracks going right to it.

Right in a row, you have the Umatilla Chemical Weapons Depot (which I think they're about done incinerating the leaky chemical bombs... stockpiling that shit sure turned out to be a good idea), and the leaky Hanford Nuclear Reservation. What's a giant landfill in the mix when you've got neighbors like that?

Maybe so, but if that's what AP's underoos are made of, the methane emission level is prolly substantial.

You wear polyester?

No comment.

(Actually this stuff http://www.UnderArmour.com is mostly polyester)
