    And after Jimmy, Iran had Reagan kissing their oil supply for holding the hostages for him. (I may not know when we landed on the moon, but….)

    Yeah, would have been terrible to put a bunch of money into those alternate energy things that Carter wanted us to develop, stuff like gasohol. That stuff has really ruined Brazil’s economy since they run all their cars and trucks on it. but why listen to some peanut farmer. What did he know? Tar balls with your spaghetti?
