$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Nano', 'I') haven't seen any topic on PO.COM that couldn't be discussed freely
There are some reasonable doubts about how much you can upset moderators. I know of somebody who got banned for a couple of weeks for "accusing moderators of bias" and he wasn't even sure which post had upset a moderator!

That would be something I would like to know the details of. Do you have them? Who is the person? Who was the moderator? What was the offending post, in the end? What was the topic which led to the accusation of bias?
Aaron: I think you should call a poll on whether people want to see a link to POD from POCOM in the menu. I thought it was a great idea. What were the arguments for removing the link? Who overruled you?

Hardly matters now since JD hung up his spurs though...
The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

While still firmly stuck in denial, JD seems like he has actually inched closer to understanding the magnitude of the problems we face with Peak Oil. He sees it as a long term issue over which he personally has little control. He has changed his view from Peak Oil being an instant event like a meteor strike, into a long term crisis with no quick space mirror fix. He no longer wishes to spend his energy trying to "debunk it" anymore.
Honestly, this seems like growth to me. His positions have shifted closer to reality. He seems less dogmatic.
It sounds like a peakoil.com success story to me!
Here’s to JD’s growth! May you one day realize things as they are, probabilistic and subject to change.
