Reminds me of the "state science institue, minus the science" quote from AS. I guess private business can't figure this out, but throwing $2b at gov labs will do the trick.

    Ok. So the president does not have enough money for the military to keep fighting for our freedom but from out of the blue he conjures up 2 billion dollars for clean energy??? That makes no sense to me. If we had the technology to replace fuel supply with clean energy, wouldn't we all ready using it? That being said we do not have the technology yet to do such a thing so why push the envelope to where it will never work.

    It was; but when I saw it, it was too good to change,and immaterial to the serious point. In fact I thought it reflected well as worded to the fatuous nature of the subject.

    I got lucky... :)

    Okay, smarty pants, point for you. And here I thought it was an oversight. (duh). I love a response that starts with "Yes. No."

    Yes. No. My paraphrasing left ambiguity with amusing implications... :) The material I gleaned it from no doubt would have read ...thespians....and homoerectus males...LOL
