This is not over by a long shot. The world is a powder keg right now and all it needs is a source of ignition to kick off another war.

I read some and scanned most of the report which lead to the Castle area closures. Somebody has spent a lot cash and hired some very intelligent folks to pull that report together. The financial support is what is lacking in our camp to make the case to keep the areas open and the resources to...

Bogger, I cannot offer a challenge to your Prof, his data or his theories, but at some point Canada (although we seem a bit more conservative than the Americans) could be in a default position of not even being able to make the interest payment on the principal. Influenced by falling dollar...

Each government always lays blame on what happened before and now the new guys are working out of a deficit. The debt problem is simple: each government adds debt regardless of the color of flag. Canada and the US have huge debt and no matter who sits in the top seat, debt grows and grows until...

For the record, tar is what you can create from cooking tree bark and sap. Oilsands or Bitumen is a heavy oil that is found in the geological formation. A relative comparison to the discussion would be like calling all 'skidoo' engines two strokes. There are some superficial similarities (black...

Although it may cost me my position in the oil sands, I am glad to see the slow down. The project world has been filled with little or no experience. Right through from construction, operations, maintenance, engineering and leadership. Compare this to the housing booms. Poor construction, poor...

After about 59 days of riding the crap out her, I got rid of her.

My buddy spent 16K on new T3 174 Sled, spent 500 for fuel, 450 for rooms and 600 for food and drink... went sledding for one week. The economics speak for themselves... LOL

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. It was a fix I needed. :drink4:

It is not as bad as I thought it would be... $4500 plus travel to Chile for sledding in August, if you have the itch real bad.
