On the occasion of the arrival of the latest oil spill to the shores of the Gulf Coast; It is baffling to consider the number of energy related accidents (incidents).
Recently, there were nuclear disarmament (containment) talks with the late great Soviet Union. Hurray for diplomacy! Now an oil disaster that has been the "only" news-headline for a week, threatens the ecology from Louisiana to Florida's Gulf Coast. What is at work here? Is this a haphazard succession of "energy" (nuclear, fossil fuels, natural resources, mining) related issues? Or, maybe a coordinated attempt to cause chaos, so as to transform the process of acquiring and providing fuel for power production? Might this be the begining of rationing energy on a "global" scale by Greenpeace idealists with a tyrannical agenda?
Let's see, there are only a few sources of energy: Manpower; horsepower; Hydro-electric; Steam; Carbon based - Petroleum, Natural Gas, and Coal; Solar; and Nuclear power. Now let's add the restrictive concepts of Carbon footprints, and Sustainable Development to the problem. Where do these figure into this equation? Add to those the United Nation's Millennium Development Goals by the year 2015?
If all these sources of energy are severely stipulated how will we produce electricity for 7 billion people? If all these are all arbitrarily controlled what will we do sit on our hands?
The string of accidents are not accidental in my opinion; But, rather a systematically orchestrated operation to bring the worldwide energy industry to a grinding halt. Yet, another paradigm shift... Then, the powers that be can dictate how and when energy can be acquired, then who reaps its benefits. Then, Presto. Voila! The age of Aquarius will have finally arrived.
Arsenio.
p.s. Super-Pres to the rescue!

It has been a devastating few weeks for the global mining community. In late March, a flood in a coal mine in northern Shanxi province in China resulted in the deaths of more than 30 workers. Then last week, in West Virginia, an explosion at a coal mine killed nearly 30 miners. Both accidents revealed some of the safety hazards associated with mining.
Meanwhile, as the United States was coping with its worst mining disaster in years, two nations in Latin America were dealing with mining tragedies of their own. Those tragedies, however, had little to do with the dangerous work involved in mining itself. Instead, they shed light on the region's informal mining sector, where politics and crime can be as life-threatening as the actual job. ...
