Oh heck yes give me a dirt bike and I would have a blast there all day long.

[Delwin]

what about the radiation?

[stratos]

You don't know me very well Delwin. Let me rephrase that. What Fing radiation. The story does not mention radiation and you pull it out your bum and think I will take it as fact. Either give links backing what you said as being a fact or stop your scare mongering. Radiation my ass. If there was radiation there would a lot less green in the trees there and the person who took those pictures would be dead.

[Delwin]

Lol. The third picture is of Hiroshima, you replied after:

That is all.

[Delwin]

There is actually no radiation threat in the tar sands development until 2020.

... i was watching a music channel recently and a neil young video came up in which he was seated at a piano playing a tune, singing, and playing a harmonica between his lyrics. plus he plays guitar. might play half a dozen other instruments too! it was then that i clued in how talented he is ...

... his politics may have soured a bit over the years, but one must separate the artist from the man. as an addendum i will say that there's probably some truth to what he says ...

And for the rest of the untold Neil visit.

Young’s visit to oilsands was more about his eco-friendly car: filmmaker.

Typical left wing BS bastard.

I really like this part..

"“We didn’t film Neil’s diesel burning bus that his crew rode in. We didn’t film the environmentally conscious community active in Fort McMurray. That stuff wasn’t on the agenda.”

“The only thing I knew for sure was that the documentary was about Neil’s 1959 Lincoln Continental convertible that he had a team of specialists convert into a cellulosic ethanol burning hybrid dubbed The Lincvolt,” Moen wrote.

“What we didn’t shoot was as informative about the narrative as what we did shoot. We did not film any reclaimed land. We didn’t film any new extraction operations using greener technology. We didn’t film any industry experts."

Hmmmm, exploiting the media and environmentalists to make money on a movie and his eco-car? That's not left wing at all. That's pure capitalism. How is that leftist of to spin the media to make him money?

Ask Al Gore, that seems like a page out of his book.

Well, at least you're not defending the blatant agenda pushing he is engaged in.
Namely, his agenda.

Good.

And I was responding to the pictures of Fort McMurray. So go back to your left wing scare mongering.

[Delwin]

Now posting actual pictures of the tar sands is scare mongering? If you feel scared, it has nothing to do with me.

Posting only half the story can be construed that way...sure.

What if I told you that every single new building is an environmental disaster? Now, what if the only pictures I ever showed you were the pics taken shortly after ground break? Nothing but a big ass whole with devastation all around it.

Am I being completely honest? Or am I deliberately skewing the results by skewing the data given?

It is very telling that all the anti-oil sands proponents only show pictures of the open pit mines, and that all the oil companies only show pictures of the freshly reclaimed (and sometimes not even touched) areas?

The truth is somewhere in between.

[commanderkai]

Never been to Fort McMurray or anything like that, but doesn't every mining operation look like wastelands?
