I guess. Maybe instead of reading them, you should brush up on basic economics.
You be you. I know how economics works. You're the one who said they never heard energy independent being used in that context.

Does the 35 cents insure  the contents?

Why would I insure those? I've never once had someone send a card back because it was damaged.

If I sell a set for $5G, then I get insurance. The only single cards I insure are Mantle cards in higher grades.

key word there is exporter. Keep it here. And, decrease private well regs.

How would we keep it here? Isn't it all pumped/acquired by private companies?

Well, I was responding to a post that says "keep it here".

But while I have your attention, if you believe we need to reduce our reliance on oil, would it make sense to shift oil subsidies to those other energy sources?

yes, not only alternative energy sources but also  pump more money into more efficient desalinization plants

None of you listened to me when the Manatee Forever stamp at 68c came out.  I bought 5 books. 

My grandma is extremely savvy 4ever technologically.  She just enjoys writing handwritten letters.  And her penmanship is impeccable.  She also plays tennis 3 times a week, runs a book club, takes care of a pup, her house, does her own taxes, drives, and hasn't slowed down one iota at 95 yrs of age.  She is mentally as sharp as ever and still has a wicked drop shot on the tennis court.  Oh...she also destroys her friends at Poker and Bridge.  :)



Solid Mugs! Give her an attagirl from 4ever. She's a shining example of what made this country great. You know, when the going gets tough, the tough get going, aina?

We can talk in a few years when the cost overruns start coming in and scares away anyone in our deregulated decentralized utility structure from taking debt to finance a decade long low financial return project.

That is unless they rightfully subsidize the heck out of it (They won't enough to affect it) and significant permit reform to shorten the construction cycle. Even then you're asking someone to take on a $10b loan on an unprofitable product.

Umm...jesmu 84 posted the comment. Tower found a way to alter the comment and make a golf joke out of it.

Is it really that difficult for you to comprehend posts?

Probably why you always take the bait.

Your Grandma sounds like a Great Lady. You are rightfully proud of her . Gals like that with her level get up and go don't grow on trees. Wonderful that the two of you are able to keep a solid dialogue going over the mail.

Muggsy, treasure your grandmother.  My wife lost hers in June, 2 months shy of her grandmother's 100th birthday.   She, too was driving and living independently into her late 90s.  Be grateful for the gift.

I'm extremely grateful.  My grandma is the best.  Sorry about your wife's grandma.

Your grandma sounds like a perfect grandma. Reading about how she lives her life put a big smile on my face. I hope you two are exchanging letters for a very long time.
