For a minute there I thought I had to get off my couch, when all the while the fact is we don't have to do anything much but keep things afloat for just a few decades more! In fact, we'd best shut up about PO, because if our offspring finds out we knew about it all along, they'll turn and wring our necks come 2036!

I wonder if anyone noticed the little part about Y2K at toward the end of the segment? Almost like Colbert was poking fun at Kunstler for his doomerism back then, and tried to relay that for today to say that "see this man preached doom before and was wrong, what's to say he is right about peak oil now?" I must admit though that I was surprised to see a prime time channel(Comedy Central) have a a peak oil prophet speaking on cable TV, specifically TV that targets the 18-24 year old segment.
