Well, it doesn't matter too much, since most of those idiot "freeing" arguments are just complete energy nonsense. Since most of their claptrap about platforms (all of types, from oil rigs to politics) is why the people with energy brains even invented robots, drones, satellites, GPS, A.I. digital computers, mirocomputers, RISC computers, optical computers, networrks, lasers, masers, CD, DVD, HDTV, solar energy, neo wind energy, biodiesel, fiber optics, PV Cells, titanium alloys, synthetic diamonds, R-20, holograms, Ebooks, On-Line Publising, SUVs, Stealth, laser-guided bombs, and cruise missiles. Since for unfortunately for the idiots, the only thing *any* of the idiots even know about platforms, (*OF ANY TYPE*) is rotted-out 1850 railroad tracks, and US Steel. > platforms = more opportunities for hurricanes to drastically disrupt su pply, and thus > *increase* the price of gas and oil.
