As Diane said, 'what a wonderful find.' I am loving this.<br /><br />It is interesting how some things haven't changed. I am afraid that if things don't change now, quickly, as far as oil/gas is concerned, we may be in a lot of trouble. I just heard today that depending on barrel pricing the amount of gas per gallon at the pumps could go up to $7.00 or more. That is crazy.<br /><br />Maybe we should all save our money and get horses. I for one wouldn't mind a horse and buggy, wagon, or whatever. :)<br /><br />Have a nice weekend my friend.

And a few are going the cooking route also, but it will take much more than a virtual handful of people to make a big difference.Glendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13894937401369741806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807358689849758829.post-13318348694186567572012-03-09T16:02:21.506-05:002012-03-09T16:02:21.506-05:00I am finding this series of post really fascinatin...I am finding this series of post really fascinating. What a wonderful find that was, all those old papers and magazines. Amazing to think that they were talking of an alternative to petrol all those years ago! We don't seemed to have progressed very much on that one, although we do have electric cars now and some people over here are using cooking oil!Southhamsdarlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12285980805569582676noreply@blogger.com
