Americandream,
That’s actually a very good point. Maybe the grand plan could just be called Peak Life. All the subsets could be included under it: PO, Pclimate, Pwater, Ppopulation, Peconomy, etc. That may be the reason we stumble over each other here some times. Each aspect is connected to each other on some level. And different folks focus on different aspects due to their backgrounds and prejudices. So there we go: today we have the grand THEOREM OF OUR EXISTANCE: PEAK LIFE.
And Peak Oil does exist as a point of logic. Whether PO comes in 5 years or 500 years it is inevitable. Just like the chat I had in a bar last night with a woman I just met. Eventually I asked her if she would have sex with me for $1 million. She laughed and said "Hell yes". The I asked her if she would for $20. She got mad and asked if I thought she was a whore. I said we had already determined she was and we were just negotiating the price. PO is coming and everyone here is just negotiating the timing. |

Not strokin yer ego here, but you have a great mind. It's refreshing when someone with intelligence can put it all in perspective like that. |

Ever since Elton John used that term misogyny to describe those of us who refused to vote for the hildabeast, Hillary, it has been spreading like wildfire. I like Elton's songs, but is'nt he talkin out both sides of his mouth here? He's gay, calling us misogynists because we won't vote for witchy-poo! I'll vote for Condeleeza Rice tomorrow. That kills two birds with one stone. That is voting for a woman and a black person at the same time.
Sorry for the

Peak Oil is not about running out of oil.
It is about running out of *CHEAP* OIL.
