Question From A New User

Question From A New User · by **Hillbilly** » Mon 26 May 2008, 20:07:53

I found this site from an article in yesterday's newspaper and I have spent this entire day here. I must have read hundreds of posts but there is one scenario that I really didn't see addressed. The general consensus seems to be that oil demand has exceeded supply and the question is how to cope with the situation. I have found all sorts of opinions on that subject but I think there are far more dire consequences than that. As supply continues to decline and economies and governments approach collapse, it appears to me that there is going to be a tremendous, global struggle to secure that oil. Global warfare? Annihilation? I would love to see your comments.

I suggest for you and all the new members to lurk for a few weeks, searching and reading old threads, almost every scenario imaginable, possible, and probable have been discussed.

A good place to start is the Best of Montequest in the peakoil discussion forum.

I really must think that all those folks who talk about popcorn are talking about the stuff they have in the store room to grind into cornmeal if they need.

If they aren't, I'd be leery of the tune they are whistling past their grave.

Look here for others' comments, assessments and whatall:

You guys are pretty tough on newbys huh? Just wanted to say thanks for the links. Just for the record, I'm a born again Christian so I'll put my faith in God rather than a bunch of self-proclaimed prophets and you won't be receiving any more posts from me. Maybe just one piece of advice; Take a look at the Amish lifestyle. You may actually learn something other than sitting in front of a monitor and posting drivel on the i-net for four years or whatever.
