    Nazi Propaganda Covered in Chocolate

    I'm currently doing a research project that I had been ignoring for the last few weeks, and been doing everything tonight like usual. I'm studing alternative fuels (Hydrogen, Ethanol, Electricity, etc) and have almost got all the information I need. Whilst searching up hydrogen cars, I came across the GM motors site

    http://www.gm.com/company/gmability/environment/

    Look how nice they are with the watering can watering that plant there. Aww, this gonglomerate really cares about us. un-dawnted by this half assed attempt at making themselves look good, I kept looking through the site

    http://www.gm.com/company/gmability/...ice/index.html

    Advanced engines huh? So you still want to use up all that crude oil before your hydrogen cars take over right? Although, this was nothing compared to what I found next:

    http://www.gm.com/company/gmability/...my_040105.html

    Save the world by making a hydrogen fuel cell military vehicle!!! That's what we need to stop people dying of pollution, kill them before the pollution does! I was getting worried about fuel running out and making the american army redundant

    The U.S. Army has the largest fleet of vehicles in the world. Improving fuel economy and reducing the logistics of the fuel supply chain could save millions of dollars. For example, it cost the U.S. Army up to $400 a gallon of gas to ship fuel to Iraq and Afghanistan
    This is brilliant, the money saved on fuel can buy more bombs to destroy Iraq and Afghanistan! Brilliant stuff from GM

    Oh yeah, don't worry, they're making fuel cell Hummers as well

    Anyone see something wrong here.

    A) They're shipping fuel BACK to the Middle East. Uh, isn't that where it came from. And although Iraqi oil industry was out of action, the Kuwaiti and Saudi ones were producing just fine

    B) If it cost $400 a gallon to ship fuel USA->Middle East it ought logically, to cost the same to ship Middle East -> USA. Which means the gas would have had to cost at least $400 a gallon to start with ($800+ once they shipped it back). Just for the freight.

    Umm. Not many middle eastern countries have oil thats good enough to make petrol. Most of it has a high sulpha content.

    Also, I dont give a monkies about what any butch pinko communist lesbian peacnik thinks of the yanks having a holiday in iraq. If they dont have to use gas - is good enough for me.

    Me is a Communist - so you should give me your bike. But me is not a butch (me is said to ride like a girlygirl, which is opposite of butch), or peacenik. Me all in favour of dropping bombs. Lots of bombs. But just not where me is please .Don't care about anywhere else. (Oh, but not Hinckley or Munich, either, please)

    As far as I know the USA army fuel is refined and supplied in Kuwait, where there is a huge logistical operation. I know this because when I was in Kuwait last year a american logistical guy and I shared a Cab to the sheraton Hotel from the airport, he spoke of this
    Ive run out of fucks to give

    A lot of fuel used by armed forces is "conditioned" so that it is less flammable than the normal civilian stuff. Particularly true of the avgas used on aircraft carriers, for safety reasons. Maybe this is a reason the Merkans were sending fuel to the Middle East from back home...

    I see nothing unusual in GMs statement as it’s an 'all American company'. Typical American capitalism if you ask me. Full of shit, and paying piece meal to environmental issues in order to appease the 'liberals" (and I consider myself one, well at least in terms of the European definition of the word).

    When you have an American administration headed by a former oil mogul (Bush) and his fuckwit of a sidekick (Channey, another oil mogul and unofficial head of a company that currently wins 85% of all contracts awarded in Iraq and Afghanistan. No shit) its no wonder that corporate America follows suit and doesn't give a shit about the environment.

    I don't hate Americans. But I do hate the American administration.

    the same man who put dangerous death traps (pinto?? ) on the road that in a rear end even at low speeds would trap the people inside and then burn them alive when the fuel tank ruptured!
