First I'll say that there was good response's by most people. Secondly some people think they know what the problem is because they believe what some one else told them in the past. I do understand the commodity futures more than people realize; I am not to good at explaining all the details. The reason why we are impacted so hard on gas prices from futures trading is because we do not export any oil. Corn ,wheat,and soybeans is an export among so many other commodities. So when corn prices go up or down the impact is not so much a burden on us and include the fact that the US will always be growing food for the world. Now for people that think oil companies making huge profits is morally wrong I ask you, If corn went from what it is now, to say 25 dollars a bushel would you not sell your grains? I would be wishing I had more to sell. If any of you say no; I will not believe you or trust you. Like one person said in this post greed will even out in the end and they better enjoy the profits now because one thing in life is that it changes; we either change with it or get left in the dirt. Do so with out losing moral beliefs and you will survive well. More people in the world now so more is gonna happen. Some people tell me they live by the golden rule well if you noticed he who has all the gold makes the rules. You see I do have gospel in me. The truth is we all are afraid of something(me included). So we point a finger at this thing or that and say it ain't right and it may not be, but fixing it is what scares us so we don't do anything because we do not want to fail. I do not have all the answers to this oil problem but I am trying to come up with a solution and if I fail I can at least say I tried. I hope the best for all of you people at whatever you do. If getting up and going to work is all you can do so be it, I understand, been there. I have really met some good people on here and hope to meet face to face someday. Have a good day all of you.

Today's Featured Article -
Tractor Generators - by Chris Pratt. As a companion to the articles on three-brush and two-brush generators, it seemed fitting that we should provide our readers with a description of how a generator works in lay terms. The difficulty with all those "theory of operation" texts is that they border on principles of electricity or physics and such. Since I know nothing of either, you will have to put up with looking at the common sense side of how generators work which means we "
