$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('SeaGypsy', '.'). Get cheap travel while you can, because it's only going to get more expensive here on out....
Yup.
This is it. Go now. When peak oil really starts to bite travel is going to be a lot more expensive, just like everything else.
If there is any spot on the planet that you've always wanted to see, any culture that you've always wanted to experience, any place on earth with historical events that you've always wanted to understand --- break your piggy bank and go there now.
You won't regret it.

Last time I was at Corcovado's it didn't look like that. I think it's Cape Town.

My guess was western Chile.
An ideology is by definition not a search for TRUTH-but a search for PROOF that its point of view is right
Equals barter and negotiate-people with power just take
You cant defend freedom by eliminating it-unknown
Our elected reps should wear sponsor patches on their suits so we know who they represent-like Nascar-Roy

I would be interested in knowing who the other 1%'s are. The only one I know for sure is Pretorian, because he doesn't have a clue about the reality for most of humanity.
It's like watching Mitt Romney. I actually met his dad and he extremely pissed me off. He wasn't too fond of me either.
Aside from my personal feelings, George Romney, though a Republican, was a Progressive, promoting Civil Rights in the early 60's, and supported Johnson's Great Society.
So I have to give him his due, even though we personally clashed.

The level of injustice and wrong you endure is directly determined by how much you quietly submit to. Even to the point of extinction.

Interesting point in The Age of Stupid: the resources needed for air travel negates most of the savings made by a household for everything else.

Right.
And the huge CO2 emissions and wasteful fuel use for a private jet flying a wealthy member of the 1% around are the worst of all---take Al Gore for example.

I'm the percent that's so liquid that I'm pulling in $60, $100 million a year. I fly private jets so I don't waste time making my next mega-deal.
