]]> Comment on 4 Easy Steps to Burglar Alarm System Troubleshooting by Pamela http://biorob2006.org/4-easy-steps-to-burglar-alarm-system-troubleshooting/#comment-83 Pamela Mon, 27 Oct 2008 15:59:48 +0000 http://biorob2006.org/4-easy-steps-to-burglar-alarm-system-troubleshooting/#comment-83 Finding the source of a problem with a security system can be tricky. This is why I recommend only using a system that comes with a full guarantee for service. If your system doesn't work when you need it to, it doesn't matter how much you saved on installation, it cost too much. Finding the source of a problem with a security system can be tricky.

]]> Comment on Wind and Solar Power Energy Solutions by Douglas M http://biorob2006.org/wind-and-solar-power-energy-solutions/#comment-54 Douglas M Sat, 18 Oct 2008 15:52:22 +0000 http://biorob2006.org/wind-and-solar-power-energy-solutions/#comment-54 I am writing to propose a way in which we can help effect a change in global warming. It may not seem like that big a deal, but maybe some people will take notice if the idea spreads, and the company's bottom line is affected. Basically, I was doing a web search to see how much money the big oil companies are spending on green technology. It seems that Shell is investing significantly more money than Exxon/Mobil in "green" energy projects, and what particularly impressed me about Shell is their investment in wind and solar energy projects. Look for yourself, but I couldn't find any information about Exxon supporting a wind energy project. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's beside the point. I really don't think any of the major oil companies are spending enough on "green" projects, but we have to start somewhere, and I think Exxon is lagging so we'll use them as a starting point. What I propose is this. 1. Do not buy anything from Exxon/Mobil as long as their investment in renewable energy projects remains below that of Shell. Shell has a head start, but they better pay attention, and use the increased profits to boost their commitment to renewable energy, otherwise we can take our business elsewhere. 2. Check the Shell and Exxon sites frequently, to see if they have posted how much they have invested in renewable energy, and buy your gas according to your conscience. 3. Pass this message to all the people in your e-mail downline to help spread the word. (Very Important, make it VIRAL) We can not rely on politicians in Washington to take action, although I think they will under the new administration. We can solve it, but only if we work together. We all know that Exxon had record profits last year. Isn't it about time that they take responsibility for their part in the global warming crisis? Or if you don't believe in global warming, maybe they should do their part to decrease our dependence on foreign oil.
