Private GOP tensions over Tom DeLay?s ethics controversy spilled into public Sunday, as a Senate leader called on DeLay to explain his actions and one House Republican demanded the majority leader?s resignation.
The Patriot Act is being voted on soon (if not now) because most of the parts of it sundown at the end of the year. It's not expected to be reinstated. If you want to call your senator or the president to voice your disgust with the patriot act (my own opinion) or even show your support, lemme know and I'll try to find the phone number for you to call. The Supreme Court will also be reviewing the Act, as it is claimed by many to be unconstitutional (overriding the writ of habeaus corpus, unlawful search and seizure, invasion of privacy (the Supreme Court ruled a while back that while there is no direct phrase guaranteeing the right to privacy, it's implied by the overall meaning and thus is part of the constitution), and any/all rights that have to do with trials/due process/cruel and unusual punishment in cases where a US citizen is suspected of being a terrorist.)
Whether you agree with the Act or not, it's your right to voice your opinion about it to your representatives and leader.
Speaking of gas prices...
New gas invented to replace the gas you're pumping into your car. It's made from Soy Bean and French Fry Oil, no lie. They're doing tests at a few places across the country (U.S.) If this works, it could have BIG worldwide effects...
They're also thinking about trying to convert to using corn and hemp grown ethanol by 2050.
In about 10 years in the future, many people will be driving Hydrogen cars.

its been around for a while now, and is used by a few people here already.
coincidentally, we were talking about this in my Environmental Issues subject today
although it is a good replacement for petrol, there is not enough to make any real difference in our current fuel consumptions.
after all there is only a limited amount of fastfood places you can get this oil from

The future is kind of a scary thought though, i mean eventually we are going to run out of oil, and at the moment we are so dependant on it...everything plastic depends on oil, its not just for running our cars. Things are going to change significantly in the future, and its going to be amazing to see what they come up with. Hydrogen powered cars would be great, because we have an abundant supply of hydrogen - water! The problem is separating it from the oxygen
