Load up! I have no connection to the site, but was curious if there were PO t-shirts, and yes indeed there are.

At first I thought, "Oh cool, gotta get one!", but then I started looking over the site they point to. Looks to me to have a decidedly cornucopian slant, which I think would lead most visitors to the conclusion "Phew! That's a worrisome situation. Good thing remedial action is well underway; I don't have to worry about it or do anything. Honey! The kids need a pickup from their soccer game! Take the Hummer, I forgot to gas up the van... "
"It means buckle your seatbelt, Dorothy, because Kansas? Is goin' bye-bye... "

Which begs the question: Why not produce effective PO merchandise?
Something simple yet effective to break the ice and begin a conversation.
Something like:
Known Oil Reserves: 1,000 Billion Barrels
Current rate of consumption: 82 Million Barrels per day.
You do the math!
And on the back have the math all worked out for them.

I hope the mods don't mind me saying this (if so, please delete), but I will have reusable shopping bags available in about a month. They're be made out of this organically grown, American grown cotton stuff too. Andy they're going to be pretty bad-ass looking, if I may say so myself.
Kevlar vests are next,

Site admin is not interested in merchandising www.peakoil.com. This other guy is fine with it, so if you want a shirt they've got em.

No margin, no mission.
No doubt, that's what business is all about, but it all makes me doubt Matt's sincerity. I suppose there is no situation that comes along where some scoundrel will not make a profit from it.
