By chance they just built a Waffle House in Summerfield FL, right in front of the BJâs gas pumps. It is really a small placeâŠI guess they donât expect many customers?
I work in Oak Ridge, TN and the Oak Ridger newspaper several years ago did an article on restaurant founders who work on or worked in support of the Manhattan Project in Oak Ridge during WW-2. They included (Col.) Harlan Sanders (KFC), who managed the cafeterias, Dave Thomasâ (Wendys) father worked on the construction of the K-25 Gaseous Diffusion Plant and Tom Forkner (Co-founder of Waffle House) was an Army courier who transported material from Oak Ridge to Los Alamos. I will attach the article.
If by rednecks, you mean the tens of thousands men and women of all skin colors who stop by for a quick breakfast or hot beverage on their way to work in this countryâs many heavy industries, then you dinosaurs really were doomed for extinction.
This does remind me of when I visited the Smithsonian museum in Washington on a holiday. I heard one of the schoolgirls on a trip there declaring in a loud voice that she didnât believe the labels and the dates of the rocks in the exhibit. âHow can these rocks be millions of years old if the world is only 2024 years oldâ. Heaven help us. These are the kids that will be in charge later. Not that theyâd do a worse job than the current lot.
It is true B.C. was set in the past by the original cartoonist (Hart) , but he and Mastroianni have made some references to current problems and politics. The dinosaurs really were doomed for extinction. But so are the people of B.C.! No children in the land of B.C. , So B.C. is an evolutionary Dead End. Sad but true.
my grandson calls Spam, bacon and jerky âfossil fuelâ; heâs vegan, like his mom [my daughter], I on the other hand enjoy a good processed meat product.
Petroleum comes from plants that died a couple hundred million years before the dinosaurs. We have known this for more than 50 years. I think comic strip authors should have figured this out by now.
Not only gas, but: fuel oil, lubricants (even for windmills), fertilizer, cosmetics, plastic, vaseline, asphalt (for all the roads in America that cars including EVs need), tires (even for EVs), most of the solar panel, clothing (polyester), feedstock, wax for candles, ink, vitamin capsules, skis, shampoo, heart valves, cold cream, hand lotion, balloons, golf balls, hosiery, nail polish, antiseptic, hair coloring, telephones, cell phones, food preservatives, sun glasses, shaving cream, toothpaste, artificial limbs, heating of silica to made breast implants and other silicon products, etc. I can just see an EV driving on dirt or only cement roads (22% of road in US are cement only), with no tires, no wire coverings, no glass or plastic, and no batteries (electrolytes comes from petro chemicals), no cooling or hydraulic components, and no EV chargers (building, setting up, and keeping EV charging stations running require materials and energy that come from oil and gas). Donât even get me started.

oil comes from the remains of marine organisms that lived millions of years before dinosaurs â AI told me so.
