Label it "disgusting" and move on because debating what was posted is apparently too difficult for you. Do you hate Bush? What about Rummy? Hypocrites.

Look at this letter: apparently in agreement enough to post support but unable to defend the thought in any way. What a weak and sad belief system.

My dog urinates on things with more personality than you.

Sun, 10 Aug 2014 02:55:26 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26300786/marilyn-samson-opposition-obama-is-over-top#IDComment863126516 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26300786/marilyn-samson-opposition-obama-is-over-top#IDComment863125860 How quickly the braindead progressives forget the hatred and lack of respect shown to Bush. From day one he "stole" the presidency and after 9/11 he was accused of orchestrating it. Honestly, if that hadn't happened the letter writer may have a valid point, but considering the context of the words used, this person doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Sun, 10 Aug 2014 02:46:41 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26300786/marilyn-samson-opposition-obama-is-over-top#IDComment863124386 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26131420/lynne-rummel-whose-freedom-are-we-talking-about#IDComment853441222 Lynne, actual quotes from Bob would help this letter become something more than just your guess, which is completelyand totally worthless as it stands. Sat, 12 Jul 2014 14:36:38 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26131420/lynne-rummel-whose-freedom-are-we-talking-about#IDComment853441222 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment851057384 Considering the geology, drill depth, borehole size, pressures, objectives, and fundamental processes are completely different a reasonable person should conclude the study has no impact on policy regarding fracking in Colorado. Pumping water into the ground in a completely different geological formation in another state has no relevance on fracking here. None whatsoever.

What I say is 1) we should be mining the products here in the USA, where we do it better than anyone else, and 2) we should only buy and use what we need. I have mined literally thousands of ounces of gold and silver and I own no jewelry - after digging one body out of the ground, and pulling two more out from bad air, I don't need it anymore. If the average person knew what it took to make the stuff we use, they would use a lot less of it.

Your post is another prime example of how you deflect and do not speak to the substance of the post. Sun, 6 Jul 2014 14:46:01 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850976445 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850975692 Would you please go back to the top of the page and actually read the letter I am trying to discuss? As you will see it is a statement about public policy. My experience and education as an engineer is directly relevant to letter. You are the only one talking about AGW as it is now plainly obvious you are not intelligent enough to speak to the letter. Sun, 6 Jul 2014 14:41:56 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850975692 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850969729 Debate in the normal world: one begins by stating an opinion and/or making a point. The following people agree or disagree and say why. Debate in tandp world: Someone states an opinion. Tandp comes along and posts about stuff that has nothing to do with that topic, and somehow thinks it is valid. Sun, 6 Jul 2014 14:09:42 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850969729 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850967905 Initially I was surprised at your idiocy; I don't know why I was to be honest. You consume resources and emit pollution an order of magnitudes greater than 90% of the rest of the world by just living in America. In your lifetime you will consume almost 73, 000 gallons of petroleum, 5.93 million cubic feet of narural gas, 41, 000 pounds of cement, 14, 000 pounds of iron ore, and 932 pounds of copper just to name a few. On top of that, I bet you own a bunch of stuff that adds REEs to the list, like smartphones, big screen TVs, lithium batteries, etc. Your lifestyle is one of the most polluting on the planet, and there you sit, completely freaking clueless. I didn't think it was possible, but I lost even more respect for you and your "opinions".

You can still see the scars in CA where some of the first environmental legislation in the US banned the practice now over 100 years ago. You are welcome.

Repeating yourself, instead of actually talking about the subject at hand. How you not see our blatant idiocy is beyond me, but keep it up. When you are ready to discuss the topic at hand, let me know. Sat, 5 Jul 2014 19:49:43 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850763079 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850756445 Every time you see a solar panel, or a windmill, think of a giant hole around 1000 times the size of what you are looking at, with a pile of finely ground rock dust (which in REE deposits tends to contain sulfides and toxic metals)twice the size of the first pile next to it. Next to that, imagine thousands of gallons of tainted, toxic, sludge filled water being dumped into a river, just upstream of the drinking water inlet for a small Chinese village. That is where your solar panel and windmill came from. That is where your hybrid was built.

I just don't give enough of a crap to change.. anything. And I am skeptical of the science, just as I am skeptical of the science and engineering surrounding fracking, which I think may be a huge mistake - on both topics time will tell and we will both be long dead before the truth is actually revealed. On the other hand, you do believe, and yet you continue to consume and emit as if nothing was wrong - seemingly purely because your belief makes it ok, or makes you better than others. Sat, 5 Jul 2014 19:12:58 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850754964 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26088915/jim-martin-oklahoma-earthquake-study-should-aid-policy#IDComment850753857 So just to review here: The letter is about injection drilling in OK, and how that would apply to policy here in CO.. My point, which is that someone who doesn't know the difference between injection wells and fracking doesn't have a valid enough opinion about either to direct policy. You made no attempts to speak to that point. Now you trying to make fun of me for doing exactly the same thing you have done - deny, or be skeptical of, the VAST scientific consensus, which is that drilling is safe and fracking is safe. *facepalm* If you want to try to speak to some of what I have talked about, go for it, otherwise you can continue on in your little oblivious world.
