Brief question. Are Roscoe Bartlett, peak oil aware representative from Maryland, and Albert Bartlett, peak oil aware professor in Colorado related? I did try briefly to find the answer before posting.

Thanks.

Ha HA ... related ! you poor confused soul , they are the same person !!!! Haven't you ever noticed that they're never in the same place at the same time ? Roscoe is the congressional crime-fighting, P.O. advocating alter ego of Albert , just imagine what Albert would look like without his glasses .... can you see it now?

I really thought this was a question about pears. Try Seckel pears sometime, they are very good.

They aren't related to each other, but individually they are related to Josiah Edward "Jed" Bartlett, one-time president of the United States of America and former occupant of The West Wing.

They are the same person aren't they. Very tricky.

They were both cloned at birth from Jed Clampett, but their names were changed to protect the innocent.

Jed Clampett ? WTF is that 'sposed to mean ? I don't get it . Is this some obtuse referance to their last names being similar ? You need to try harder , your wasting bandwidth with that weak shit....dude.

I saw an interview with Roscoe where he was asked this question. He said they're not related and I think he said they hadn't even met, although he's familiar with his work.



Of course, that's exactly what you'd expect him to say if they were the same person.
