Do you have DirecTV?
I just have to rant tonight - after watching all the "Post Debate" Coverage I could handle...
Tune to channel # 115. It’s a, "True Story," over how Big Energy is trying to help the world by exercising "New" and "wonderful ideas" – like slant&curve well drilling – and other ways of drilling on other people’s property without their knowledge – therefore never having to pay these land owners for their mineral rights. Of course Big oil would never take advantage of our Worldly Citizens!

Anyway, back to point here – if DirecTV is going to show Oil Company dribble trying to improve their image (Exxon still hasn't totally cleaned up their mess after 20 years - ask any of the unemployed fishermen who are still alive to tell the tale) – Anyway, it only seems fair to me then that DirecTV must also give equal time to those industries out their trying to help us get away from the big Oil Companies, and our dependence of them. I lost all belief in Big Oil (as if I had any to begin with) when they lowered gas prices right before the 2006 National Elections. Now that their guys didn’t win – they’re back to screwing us again with high prices – always with a excuse. How bout telling us what really happened when you guys of Big Oil met with Dick Cheney in the White House way back in 2000, to develop an American Energy Strategy - one which you were sworn not to share with the American People. From that point, we’ve been ruled by a rogue government that, to this day, continues to squeeze as much blood as they can get from us Americans (based on their projections) between now - through January 9th, 2009. Even then, their plan is to likely go underground, and continue this ugly ruse - maybe add a little Blackwater to the mix... Wait, I think I hear them drilling now... Is it illegal to bury dynamite under the ground?
My E-letter to Shell – They didn’t make it easy to find a place to send one – even though they highly touted their Docudrama on DirecTV – They didn’t ask for feedback...
Shell.com/us/technology Direct Tv Channel #115, 9 minute film titled, "Eureka!"
"Propaganda"
This program was pure Propaganda for another energy company. I suppose it's in the same class as paid programs on other channels selling knives and potato slicers - still - this Shell film deal is "Political," and you should give equal time to alternative producers of energy - to that I would say - "Eureka!!!" - BMM
And my email message returned this morning...
