"I did go to collage however,"
I'm only human. I simply could not resist.
There's a palpable sycophantism in this discussion with regards to Base - not that he has anything to do with it. I would be cool if some of these same sycophants took notice of Base's civility, and not just his experience.
One needn't work in an industry to lend a valuable insight on a particular topic, however. Conversely, working in an industry does not make one's opinion on a any particular topic necessarily more or less valid.
Keystone and the oil sands in general is an issue for us all. Keystone, at this point, is a matter of public policy - so all voters would do well to log an opinion on it.

I would say the pipeline qualifies for such a preventative remedy.
You haven't demonstrated that prohibiting the pipeline would result in a remedy.

I have to my satisfaction. In the interests of not repeating myself, I invite you to re-read past posts, or not, as you wish.

"I did go to collage however, studied writing..."
Heh. Heh.
"My opinions are all backed up I assure you, and not pure speculation. When people like Base talk I tend to listen and learn."
Coz, the only source you consider valid is another greybeard usetabe climber that you respected bitd. Or someone like Ron who cups your balls juuuussstt right.
That said, we can agree that Base is a wonderful source of knowledge here at ST, and his opinion has particularly great weight. Yours...notsomuch.

I read your posts the first time please do not repeat them. All you did was state your view as fact and include the occasional reference to legalization of marijuana as analogy.

I don't post much anymore but I can only conclude two things from this discussion.
Pipeline = bad
Coz = knob
Disclaimer: I once led a 5.10 and I can climb 5.7 off the couch. And I studied collage once. But I can reed pretty darn well, especially when there's a saxophone involved.

So like the OP, you have no fing clue what ur talking about...
Pretty sure my career experience is just fine for debating energy policy and oil pipelines. Debating it with a 9/11 conspiracy nut job...unlikely a reasonable way to spend my time.
Carry on

I agree Hoser.
I have differed with Base a few times on hydrofracking and Fossil Fuels.
I have never called him names ,nor would I.
Not knowing FF production,markets or where to find it,does not disqualify one from discussion.
He has said no one here knows energy.
Pretty broad strokes I would say.What type of energy?
Renewables ,hydro,geo-thermal,solar,wind generated and bio sourced are Energy.
I first installed solar panels during Jimmy Carters tenure,and find it hard to believe it has not caught on.
And I will never tell anyone to go kill themselves to reduce their impact.

Crazy talk on this thread.
Stalkers and leg humping and cuppers of testicles? Sounds like big oil all right

Everybody knows who you are, Coz. You've made that painfully clear for many years.
I am nobody...you don't know me, we don't have many mutual friends, I didn't climb .14d bitd, I wasn't a Valley rat....I'm nobody, and you don't give a sh#t.
Let's keep it that way!
