Default Dis-information

News item this morning on the radio. Exxon/Mobil has announced they will stop funding the agencies providing dis-information on hybrids. Apparently, according to the report, many of these organizations are not very large, many just having a PO box number. I suppose CNW is one of the larger.

One of the executives was caught admitting their oil company funded the dis-information campaign against EVs and hybrids a year or two ago. Now it's official.

"We're big oil. You can trust us!"

Consider the source . . .

Al Gore said it best that it is unreasonable to expect someone whose living depends upon selling something to sign up for conservation of that very product.

I think Bob said it best. It's so true.

You can't expect politicians to help with oil prices either. Why? Because they are all getting kickbacks.
