this outfit near me has converted a lot of different vehicles, including quite a few S10's

also in good spirits, I'll say that you're getting way too many random bits of misinformation from the wrong places, as indicated by your conflating concern about CO2 induced climate change and environmentalism and your "well known" fudging of data - what data? references please - and what are all these "conflicting theories"? .... there were no "global warming environmentalists" predicting an ice age, although there was a fair amount of media hype over reports that millennial geologic cycles indicated that we should have been on the downslope of the current interglacial period, taken to be indicated by the apparent leveling of global temperatures for a period, which led to a lot of enlightening research on some of the cyclic influences on global climate .... about that same time, 1981, a professional climate scientist was predicting almost exactly what has come to pass ... climate is indeed a very complex system, which is why your TV weatherman isn't the place to find out much about it, or even about next weeks weather, but there are a whole bunch of very knowledgeable scientists who can correct your misconceptions about it if you're willing to look and think

about the carbon cycle in the atmosphere..... about glaciers .... about the atmosphere's layering .... and how greenhouse gases affect it ....or watch some on the tube

I'm not too sure who "greenies" are, but the petro industry might have a different view than your "foot researchers, and if you really understand what fossil petroleum is, you'd understand that it "regenerates" on geologic timescales .... and if you like the current price of gasoline and are willing for your children to pay 3 times as much and for your grandchildren to not obtain it for any price, then yes, we have lots left eek keep believing in free market capitalism, but prepare for the results, it ain't gonna be pretty

there are a number of good possibilities for future sustainable transportation power, but right now few folks who hold the purse strings seem to think developing and deploying them is important enough to try and avoid a tragedy on the commons, too much profit to be had with existing infrastructure
