I've heard they have discovered a lot of gas lately and some large oil fields too.
So, maybe we don't have to worry about running out of fuel for a few more decades..

Trusting the government isn't something that I would consider. Especially these days.

We have the best government money can buy. Too bad the average person hasn't any chance at all of being the high bidder.

Haha...

Well, the way I understand it, people who are paid by us, are our employees.

As their bosses, perhaps we should fire all those folks that think we are their employees.?.

Default The Secret Nuclear War

Quote:
Nuclear Detonation Map and Timeline 1945-1998

The 2053 nuclear tests and explosions that took place between 1945 and 1998 are plotted visually and audibly on a world map.


Quote:
As the video starts out detonations are few and far between. The first three detonations represent the Manhattan Project and the two bombs that ended World War II. After a few representative minutes the USSR and Britain enter the nuclear club and the testing really starts to heat up.

Even though the video does not differentiate between sub-critical "safety" tests and full detonations, you get a good idea of the fever of the nuclear arms race.

The time line does not extent to tests by North Korea (October 2006 and May 2009).
How many deaths is the nuclear industry responsible for?

Here is a link to the most recent study.
