    that is quite uncommon, and also falls outsinde MY definition of "exclusively gay", that is heterosexual reproduction. When a baby crawls out of a man's ass after 9 months, then give me a call and I'll retract what I said.

    Let's try it another way, for every one barrel's worth of electricity delivered to your home, two more barrels are eaten by your power plant. None of the processes I mentioned are that bad.....your phase "a lot" means nothing and shows your ignorance of engineering.

    Let's try it another way, when it is economical to do so, it will be done. It IS being done, e.g. tar sands are 15% of U.S. crude imports. e.g. shale oil ramps up whenever crude prices and demand stay high for sufficient time. you lose, engineering and economics win. environment loses.

    "alternatives cost more energy to produce liquid fuel " yes, so what? they will be done as easily recoverable crude goes above some cost, say $120 a barrel.

    Two-thirds of the energy produced at your power plant is lost before the one-third gets to your appliance to use. What is this phrase "losing a lot of energy" supposed to mean? That's already the norm because in this universe we have thermodynamic principles that seem to govern energy transfer. It matters not from supply perspective that it requires energy to make hydrocarbon fuel, since we have centuries of supply. There likely are and will be pollution issues, though, and we of course have plenty of other smarter energy sources on this earth.

    no, only the "biased" part of your definition is correct. Propaganda can even be correct and not misleading at all. But it will be biased and be from source with an agenda.

    yes, even too much alfalfa or white clover can sometimes cause deadly bloating with asphyxiation or internal hemorrhaging. My Grandad and uncles would sometimes have to lance cattle swollen to a balloon shape, releasing a very putrid gas, in order to save their lives. The cattle find an area of the pasture lush with that kind of stuff and what do they do? same thing as a four year old kid left unattended in a candy shop, that's what.

    Does't matter if the process to get ultra clean diesel is lossy, since there is no shortage of energy to do it. And we will be transitioning to the other plentiful fossil fuels, already in motion with coal and natural gas reserves. Absurd statement about coal and electricity as plenty of coal fired stations exist, that provides half the power in my area (Chicago) and nuke the other half. Peak oil is irrelevant and will cause no problems.

    not a valid point in the case of fossil fuels, we can make any hydrocarbon chain out of any other, longer or shorter. For example, coal can be made into diesel fuel or gasoline or kerosene. Natural gas can be made into them too. We have fossil fuels sufficient for hundreds of years, there will be no "peak" of fossil fuel use due to production limitations
