Won't have to, coal is easily converted to oil. Anyway I'm in my mid 60's now and plan to suck up the rest of the oil recources before I check out. I have a 440 six pack 1969 cuda, a lincoln navigator, a 41 ft Hinkley Sloop, a 28ft. boston whaler twin 150 merc's and a 17 ft. custom skiff I use for inshore fishing for reds and snook. I use a Ford 250 duelie to pull the whaler and skiff.

 Good on ya, enjoy retirement. You've earned it I'm sure.  I'm 12 years behind you, retiring at 57 and then sailing off into the sunset south to San Diego for the winters with my 28' Rinker.

Rinker is a nice boat, I made a trip from San Diego to Panama in a 28 Ranger back in the 70's. You will need to suck up whats left of that oil, that rinker gets bad mileage

Lets see how will they stand in next election.
Is it good news for you Nilsen ?
What people around you think about it ?

Most people here think its a good thing that the money follows the politics we belive in. To say one thing and do the oposite would be a double-standard. There are plenty of investment oportunities out there.

Ok, they can stand in ice water and beat their chests to show their bravery. But who really gives a s**t what they do in Norway? Actually I think I'll go melt the ice cubes in protest...

You better get your guys (US) out of Norway first or they'll be swimming home

You'll have to take that up with NATO. Personally with the fall of the Soviet Union I don't see any need for the US to defend western Europe. But if I where you, I'd keep a close eye on Germany. They got a tunnel under the channel now.
