    A brief explanation.
    The Gregorian Calendar
    Britain didn't immediately adopt the Gregorian calendar because it came from the Vatican; remember, Scotland and England had their own separate Reformations (1560 & 1540 respectively) after the main one in Europe (1519).
    Then we had three civil wars, a Glorious Revolution and three Jacobite rebellions into the bargain.
    Also other religious wars on the Continent besides the Thirty Years War, obviously.

    The subcontinent of Europe was too crowded for a bunch of different calendars, IMNSHO.

    The AI research into Oil has been interesting. 4 types of oil- sweet. sour, heavy, light.
    Talk about how the oil is created. 4 types of formations - biogenic, non-biogenic, conventional, unconventional.
    AI grabs its info from the net. From published bits. From scientists.
    Scientists like - Neil deGrasse.
    They put out anything that forms to their lefty ideology.
    If biogenic oil takes millions of years and certain conditions- then the 5-10 year refill of "empty" wells can't be explained by biogenic.
    Non biogenic oil makes much more sense. A chemical reaction. That makes a lot more (common) sense, than pools of rotting veg and dino.

    The bottom line-in my books: Oil is a recurring resource. Lefty tries to deny us a resource in order to make money.
    They are trying to transfer energy reliance from stable coal and oil to unstable electric batteries, solar farms, wind farms etc.
    Electric car batteries are now earths bane.
    Lets talk aboot it.
    Thomas Gold - deep gas hypothesis
    Vladermir Kutherov's - experiments
    Russian- Ukrainian theory of abyssal, abiotic petroleum origins
    "current scientific consensus". lol
    Was deGrasse consulted...

    A lot of the "scientists" look like rachel levine. A lot of gender confused people. ..Saw a freak who was expounding at CERN.
    Then I saw the statue of Shiva (the destroyer) at the Switzerland CERN.
    We could talk aboot Cern, the GOD particle, and whats going on yonder.
    Maybe even the Catholic church and some of their buildings/ statues.
    Glorious times.

    Yeah, recurring every few hundred million years. "There may be a temporary shortage as we wait for the next batch of petrochemicals to percolate.

    Petrol is a dirty, old fashioned source of energy...We should have seen the back of it years ago.

    1881 the first solar panel - this one from 1910:

    The first electric car 1881!

    Im not necessarily talking about solar, but there are many ways to produce energy - Few have been developed to the point that petroleum has....

    Well, wondering about the non biotic chemical reaction. Mantle has all the needed chemicals heat pressure to create oil... plus all those demons running around.

    Electric cars have proven to be failures. Maybe in large warm cities. Not here in Canuck town. There are fields, thousands of electric cars in chyna, rotting. Nobody wants to recycle car batteries.
    They catch fire. explode and are difficult to extinguish. Like Los Angeles.
    All lefty constructs.

    How about those ford lightnings. Or any electric vehicle sold in NA. Watch utube vids. Electric is a joke. They weigh twice as much...so - what problem would a super heavy vehicle pose?
    Start with tire wear. Tire expense compared to gas is ridiculous.
    Recharge time is a joke. Batteries explode.
    Owner must inform home insurance they have an EV on/ in property. Because, fires. Happens all the time, like Los Angeles.
    LA is covered in land mines in the form of EV's. They are dangerous.
    Just read a story about electric school buss' being a complete waste of money. School can't get any action regarding 200,000$ buss' that don't run. Look at vehicle range when it is cool or heaven forbid- cold.

    You missed the point about development...Countries all over the world have spent the last 100YEARS developing their own engines and then taken each section of engine and refined it, and refined it again...Early petrol cars were a joke also...Petrol stations/Gas stations/Servos were a joke and took time to proliferate...There are a number of reasons petrol won out...money being the biggest.
    There are plenty of problems with the cold and combustion engines also...Remember the EXTERNAL combustion engine is a Steam Train! Todays cars are highly advanced steam trains!! (having the combustion occur internally)

    Not sure what you mean here. Petroleum is a biologic based compound.

    I didnt say the first practical...just that the tech had been conceived and built way back then...The point being that we could have gone down that path, with the time, energy and money sunk into the combustion engine instead sunk into solar/electric technology we would be miles ahead of where we are today. We even new the day would come (when petrol becomes un cost effective) and still lagged...Only now is serious money and brains going into the technology and we aren't far off breakthroughs which will vault the tech and its use to a high level...
    Tesla knew...

    From the info I saw-
    Would non biogenic oil imply - it was not formed by decay of organic material...The non biogenic is produced by a chemical reaction. At a much faster rate. I dunno.

    EV's have always been inferior. Can always carry gas into the wild. ..A lot of info regarding metro EV being stranded/ running out of power. Bigly fails.
    Military would never use EV in main vehicles. Tanks etc.. That would not be common sense.

    Actually, as you said you have to carry fuel into the bush (and come back to base eventually) or have it brought out to the field (very dangerous). Imagine the tank being painted in photo voltaic paint - or panels on the tank that can be taken off and extended...or a microwave beam from space powering up the tank...It would never have to come back in...except for parts, food etc.
    Extend the idea to a car, you will never be stranded on the side of the road (out of petrol) ever again...just sit back and let the car power back up. ANYWHERE. Electricity is FAR easier to generate than people think. If you want to power something smaller than a city, your options open up. EVs have not always been inferior - indeed their development trajectory is many time greater than pretroleum, which is just about at the end of any further refinement.
    Indeed, the powers that be are ALREADY working on electric Tanks and Aircraft...There are already electric dragsters, and they will only become more and more powerful - Not common sense? It makes perfect sense...your power source is all around you.

    Seems like it would make sense to put a big source of free energy smack dab in the middle of the solar system so everybody could benefit.

    Probably some federal regulation against that.
