Who I believe 0used it to either open or expand a plant in Finland although the plan was to open a couple plants in America, which kinda defeats the purpose of the loan. :salute:

Something like that, yeah. Valmet started making the cars, while R&D remained in US.

Didn't look too much into it, so I may be wrong about it. :yep:

yubba 08-31-12 05:46 PM

ooooh, they build electric cars like they do here in the states, that no body wants. I, know Wally, we got more oil here than all those middle eastern countries combined, why would I want to buy a crap box like the volt. Man shouldn't have had that crab juice. That's ok you guys in finland the fed is about to print more money, heck a can of peas is about a buck now and gasoline teetering at 4 dollars a gallon let the good times roll. Funny I called mom to wish her a happy birthday and the dog answered the phone.

dumb beyond belief :doh:

Dowly 08-31-12 06:24 PM

:huh:

Err.. Yubba... I hate to tell you but some 60% of world's oil reserves are located in Middle East. :88)

mapuc 08-31-12 06:36 PM

Maybe he's thinking on this

But it seems to be a little exaggerated

As I understand there's oil under the american soil-but how much

Depending on where you look - it could be a couple of places that do - including the US.

By this accounting, the world has about 763 billion "undiscovered" barrels of oil, of which roughly 26 percent indeed belongs to us. These figures don't include the actual reserves currently being drilled across the globe, which are quite significant. Saudi Arabia alone has about 262 billion proven barrels available.
Now, here's where the USGS figures really fall short: They ignore a massive chunk of the world's potential future oil resources. The study looks at conventional oil. That's regular old black gold, the kind that made Jed Clampett and that nutjob from There Will Be Blood rich. But there are many other kinds of oil, which get lumped into a category called "unconventional oil." That includes the billions of barrels of tar sands oil in Canada, heavy oil in Venezuela, and shale oil in North Dakota.*
So Obama's numbers almost certainly underestimate the relative size of America's potential oil supply. The Republicans may be overestimating it. Or, depending on the kinds of unconventional oil discoveries we make in the coming years, they could be massively underestimating it too. But both sides are are oversimplifying the issue. Shocking, I know, you have been lied to, yubba will find more imfo, Colorado is booming you sure here that on the news do you and Obama is doing every thing he can do to shut them down, my brother is in the natural gas game like is said more than, right here right now, drill baby drill.

yubba, recently M23 rebels, who have links to Bosco Ntaganda, have been fighting government soldiers in North Kivu in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Since you're obviously an astute observer of geopolitical events, can you give us your take on how the rebel fighting will constrain the production of cobalt ore and what this could mean for the superalloy market?

We're not being lied to. From your own article:

Quote:

The GAO testimony is careful to note the existing concern over ***8220;viable technologies***8221; necessary to extract recoverable oil from the oil shale, as well as environmental concerns over water quantity and quality, impacts on air quality, and disruption to wildlife. Rapid socioeconomic development could falter just as quickly, as it has in the past, with an unpredictable ***8220;boom and bust***8221; cycle.
Discussion is ongoing. Also, be advised that these are not proven reserves. The graph that I posted is of proven reserves only.

yubba 08-31-12 07:10 PM

http://www.forbes.com/sites/christop...orlds-biggest/ heck we haven't gotten to the gulf yet . If we got serious about oil production we would be the riches and greatest nation on earth and Obama wants to give it away...

Exactly - it all depends on what you call "oil reserves". Proven reserves recoverable under current conditions? Proven reserves under other condtions (different regulation, tech, etc). Probably or possible reserves?

Discussion is indeed ongoing.
