According to the Dutch branche of the PeakOil network, the production peak of conventional oil is likely to be already behind us. Back in 2005 we hit the 74 million barrels mark twice, never to return since.

I went to a PNM, we are shareholders, natural gas meeting on thursday.
PNM sent out about 500,000 postcards since they apparently missed a filing which could have been sent out with bill.
Of about 30-35 attendants, only about 10 or less [mostly retirees ... like [senior techie citizen] were not associated with PNM.
I took some jpgs.
So let's start a post and ask some questions about the future of Nex Mexico natural gas which the IRP is tasked to address. |

I'm a bit worried about the future of our kids and, maybe even more important, our grandkids.
So senior citizen techie is thinking about to what to do.
Let's ask PNM natural gas IRP some GOOD questions. And DEMAND some good intelligent answers.
While continuing our legal project, of course. |

I'm all for it, but in the greater scheme of things, do you think New Mexico gas production will really affect much? |

Cute kids.
Its unfortunate, but its too late. We peaked 2 years ago, Doom should have happened immediately according to the experts, but it didn't, so it can't be that far off.
Maybe some advanced firearm training for the kids? Teach'im how to hunt and become farmers, self defense training? Buy some land away from everyone else? Mine it, booby trap it, desensitize the kids to survival by letting them have first shot at trespassers?
Just some suggestions, I'm gonna try and ride it all out in a bomb shelter basement closer to the city, figuring it'll implode quicker and I can mop up after the zombies starve. |
