$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('lorenzo', '.')..That's why there will never be a real Peak Oil "event". Peak Oil is pure virtuality, a fantasy world. It sells well now, but it will never be Real.

If you cross a street, do you look left and right first?

Of course not, because every truck that is not right in your field of view is a non-event, it doesn't effect you!

[NEOPO]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Zardoz', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('JohnDenver', 'I') measure events in terms of objective criteria like body count. There simply aren't enough troops dying in Iraq to constitute an "event".

It just seems like an event due to all the media obsession and hype. Objectively speaking, GI Joe getting killed in Iraq is no more significant than Average Joe getting killed on the freeway.

[rwwff]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('NEOPO', 'I') wonder if Lorenzo, rwwff and the others would be willing to take such a poll and abide by the results?

[NEOPO]

Call me crazy but I go back and read what some people have stated here from day one and in the case of rwwff that is no small task.

I also have a very good memory so I remember rwwff saying things like:
"I dont care if anyone takes me seriously"
or
"This is entertainment to me"

That is what he says when he is cornered yet notice how often he posts and how adamantly he stands by his convictions.
He seems to care alot.

You can easily sense Lorenzo's BS and I can sense the BS coming from RWWFF, PMS, the new resident jew racist Kam et al.
SSDD and I am personally very tired of it.
Thats right I said PMS.
After PMS pm'ed me to say he smokes pot yet doesnt want anyone to know because of his POSITION (history teacher) etc etc blah and then he goes on to call me a pot smoker 10 times in order to discredit me after I handed him his ass on the pot smoking issue.....the rest is evident.
PMS threatened me and called me a MOTHERFUCKER for posting a "vampire link" to a rage against the machine song on a thread that IMO should have been moved to the hall of flames long ago.

These people do not represent the "other" view - they push the neocon view.
rwwff and others have stated albeit somewhat covertly that they are happy with resource wars and that it will allow americans to continue with their unsutainability alittle while longer.

These people are sick....

Sick people who need psych help yet here they are just as welcomed as anyone...to stay....to post crap.....to deny the real ramifications of PO etc etc.
I read back and see Monte trying to show RWWFF et al that their reasoning is flawed.
I read back and see most of the sensible people here trying to talk some sense into them.
I read forward and see how nothing much has phased them and even when it does they flip from cornucopian to doomer in seconds.

If I didnt believe it was some sort of forum "invasion" I would think that they are perfectly insane.........

A few people have been banned from here lately, and I believe they were the most firm believers in podebunked. I am trying not to generalize too much, but those true podebunked believers were the most disruptive. Lorenzo now seems to me to be some kind of paid shill for the podebunking industry, although he hasn't admitted or denied this (and I am sorry in advance if my judgement on this turns out wrong).

What's worse is that the media has taken on choosing sides in this PO debate - and has more than made up for the loss of podebunked. Reminds me of the long drawn out global warming debate. Newsweek thinks nothing of providing a new "what, me worry about PO?" story today. Even the otherwise reasoned lewrockwell.com is bashing PO. Most every media commentator states energy prices are too high and supplies are more than adequate. It's almost like 1984, repeat the lie often enough and you will be forecd to beieve. I think the inability to grasp PO relates to the fundemental belief in the 'free market' system where the free market and technology will solve every problem. Yes we have come so far, and yes there is still a small chance fusion or something else will provide more energy until we are up to our waists in toxic waste - but I wouldn't bet on that happening now.

Dezakin - I don't expect you to look through all Lorenzo posts to discover this, but Lorenzo appears to putting forth the exact position of an interest group.

So what's wrong with that? I guess nothing except it may hide an ulterior interest to disrupt PO.com.

On the fission thing, care to explain why its not commercially viable at this point if it were so easy to do?
