    It wasn't me... one of our installers, I can't remember, I think they used one of our crane trucks.

    The only educational efforts I have seen from the coal industry are a few commercials that say, "Hey, coal is clean burning." They aren't particularly informative. The oil and gas industry seems to make more of an effort. The use of natural gas and growing popularity of CNG engines certainly makes their battle easier. Coal still has to battle images of miner's coal-blackened lungs and coal-powered factories in China where the workers can't even breathe.

    As a fairly random note I read recently that Chevron, if I recall correctly, is now the largest supplier of geothermal energy in Asia. This is not the first sign that Big Oil is becoming Big Energy, if you will.

    I've been in 3 earthquakes in Oklahoma! The first I thought the maintenance crew must be working on my apartment building. The second I slept through. The third I started giggling and then got online and waited for my Facebook to have a nerdgasm from the 50ish geologists, mostly in Oklahoma, on my friends list.
