I think you are totally right and wild guess would be that this could be on purpose. If I remember correctly the actions suggested in this book are related to what you can do in the open and without breaking into buildings. Petroleum refineries are a sort of a cluster of building structures and I suppose transformer cooling oil machines are kept indoors.

That said, and to my knowledge, drilling equipment is in the open, but in private properties. Tbh I don't remember examples in the book that suggest breaking into private properties neither, but I could be wrong. So, if this argument of mine doesn't hold water, I am more than open to reconsider.

It's interesting that this doesn't talk about attacks on transformer cooling oil, or any kind of attacks on petroleum refinery or drilling equipment. Probably because the later would have been unthinkable in the 90's.

No prob ^^

This is amazing, thank you.

I'm still surprised I never noticed it while searching 'audiobook' in the community search for posting, or the many times I've scrolled through our local communities page. 😅

I am glad you discovered it because I have the impression you sound kinda happy for it.

Very much so :)

I think you are being too harsh on yourself! Due to its content there are very few post every month, so it's super easy to miss. Apart from that, I am glad you discovered it because I have the impression you sound kinda happy for it.

Unrelated to the OP but...

I'm a bit ashamed to admit I didn't know we had an audiobook community. Like, the darn thing has just been sittin' here for a whole gosh dang year, and I somehow never noticed it? I even posted an audiobook to a different audiobook community just a couple days ago!

I shan't make that mistake again.

I would love to see a docudrama on the Business Plot that Gen. Butler foiled.

Since I didn't know anything about SPGB, I looked it up a bit and found the folling very interesting reference about this book from licom.org:

They stood almost alone against the 1914-18 war, and foretold the state capitalist outcome of the Russian Revolution. We disagree with their electoralism but reproduce this text for reference.

Will listen to it, as soon as I find the time
