   In about 2 years Obama & the Democrats will have made fossil fuel obsolete, and all the petrochemicals We now get from oil & coal will come from recycling. You may as well sell Your rig now while somebody will still buy it, and go into busness planting shrubery on rooftops. But don't take My word for all this, I heard it on TV.

Hey Dave, sorry, I can't resist a slight poke here. It's likely that all the democrats will become used welding equipment salesmen(this isn't meant as a dis to those of you who are in this line of work), buy up all of that equipment and then sell it all back to everyone at 3 times the price and enter into early retirement. Please forgive me I just couldn't help it. Best regards, Allan
