		<description><![CDATA[Ahh, the headache, the nausea, the dry heaves of economic hangover. I hear everyone saying &#8220;why should the taxpayer bail out Wall Street?&#8221; I ask, why not the taxpayer.
Who else but the taxpayer is responsible for this mess? Back in 2003 we set the precedent by ceding Congress&#8217; Constitutional authority to declare war. We have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If its possible, lets for a moment forget that this megalomaniac of a president, his corrupt administration and the spineless Congress will soon pass a bill that shreds the Constitution.  Can we put aside the marriage of big government and big corporations exploiting and stealing from the U.S. population for a moment and talk about [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jerome a Paris has an interesting post over at The Oil Drum this morning, suggesting that the $700 Billion is not about propping up the banking sector per se, but is in fact about re-capitalizing the Fed, which is now over-extended due to previous ad hoc moves.
As horrifying as that sounds, it&#8217;s not nearly as [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Greenerminds contributor Outback Brad features in this recent local article about urban chickening. I finally got to meet Brad and his family recently at the South Wedge Farmer&#8217;s Market. I saw the table for the chicken group and figured he must be nearby. Hat tip to David at Daily Planet.

		<description><![CDATA[My most recent trip to the Catskills revealed even more frenetic activity than was evident in June. This includes massive infrastructure, especially in the form of pipelines and right-of-way cuts over forested ridges for feeder branches. The new Millenium pipeline, which will run from Corning east then south and eventually to New Jersey is a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Finally, a major news outlet (sort of) is covering the environmental damage from hydraulic fracturing (&#8221;fracking&#8221;) for natural gas in shale deposits. The Christian Science Monitor covers the story at a relatively high level (hat tip TOD). Interesting how the API always says &#8220;there&#8217;s a concrete casing so the water is fine.&#8221; NYC seems to [...]]]></description>

The idea I want to put forward and test is the idea that, from a resource use and allocation standpoint, every natural resource price and therefore every derived commodity price is wildly inaccurate [...]]]></description>

Sadly, it was out, but another book, The Timeless Way of Building was in, and I&#8217;m glad for this happy little accident [sic].
