I think this is the beginnings of an economy based on perpetual growth and fossil fuel energy running headlong into geological energy constraints. Basically I see an undulatory downward path for the rest of my life. From here out, I think any rallies in our economic condition are going to be met with spiking commodity prices that knock us right back down.

Jupiter, you are still in Southern California as we can see. Correct your spelling of the abbrivation therof (see KSemmlers version vs. the 1950 "Calif." one). Good luck of making it out of there. It is one of the largest accumulations of human beings known ever. A lot of good people though and I wish 'em well.

The message I got out of Michael Moore's 'Bowling for Columbine' was that Americans are scared of just about everything. Lock your door, buy a gun, distrust the guy on the corner, don't trust...etc.
No, I'm not scared of Peak Oil whether it's a legitimate theory or not. Unlike other doomers I'm not selling my property, hoarding gold, buying chickens or increasing my store of tinned goods and rations.
