Boat hippie crackpot hydrogen rant?

[BuddyPal]

I'm beating myself up about it a little bit, but I can't find the thread where that one hippie was ranting about how hydrogen power could destroy the world, and about how shipping oil from Saudi Arabia to the U.S. was throwing off the Earth's rotation, along with a whole bunch of other unfounded garbage. It was really funny, and I've lost the url. His name was "boat -something-" or sailboat something, anyways if anyone remembers where the thread is, please let me know.

I don't remember that, but it sounds like something we would have deleted.

That sounds fuuuuuunnny. I wish I could read it. Just to put it out there, I get called a hippie all the time and you wouldn't catch me dead tolerating garbage like that.

We never allow crackpottery like that to linger in this forum.

Zz.

Please don't delete it, I use it often as an analogy of the dangers of ignorance, and the stress that comes with a lack of understanding. Plus it's really funny =)
