This is a loss. Rocc, I'll miss your unique perspective. I hope you thrive wherever you're going.
I guess the day is coming when we will all be gone from here. Nothing lasts.
At least we'll be able to say we were right, when most of the rest of the world was wrong.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('smallpoxgirl', 'I') really think this is going to end up being the defining moment of our lives. When we're 70 people will ask us about the crash of '08.
Quite the optimist thinking that many of us will get to 70 yo to tell about it. Where is everyone going?? I plan to be hooked up to the web until the last electron stops flowing. Do I have much time?

Yes it will. Over at the ticker forum it is interesting, they all make money by shorting the market, but now that we are at the rim of the abyss they are all pretty much silent about investing. What is coming is so bad it doesn't matter if your long or short.
I have a lot of errands to do tomorrow. Guns Groceries and cash.

Small consolation tho' it may be. But yea... sometimes the satisfaction of being able to say 'I told you so' is worth it, no matter what the price.
Good luck Richard, wherever your footsteps lead you...

You have 3.5 years, then the web disintigrates. Roccman will be back, at least to say I told you so and we will say, you were right. it gets awful boring in a bunker for 3.5 years.
we wont have dollars though and maybe no peak oil forum (I think this aaron guy won't be able to afford this black hole)
As for enlightening the world about peak oil forgetaboutit. wont happen. anyway, we are too cool to ignore, say hi once in a while roc, tell us how it is going independant.
We are quite succesful we have been independant from stores for 2 years now it is not hard to do. Just seems a little scary when there wont be any stores to fall back on...
But there is going to be crying wailing and knashing of teeth when the little spoiled brats can't get pepsis from the pop machines in the school halls anymore. definitely our lifves have changed this week.

Thats my take too Eli. Tonight there is a very palpable fear over there. The Ticker Forum folks are not a bunch of tinfoil crazies. I may even go out tonight and find an all night Wal mart or something to pick up a few things.
Its sad that there are so many people who have no clue at the moment what is coming. Its possible that commerce as we know it may cease operating on a rather large scale within hours or days.

So what does it all have to do with peakoil economics?

This is a given. In Russia they had just basics available and there will always be a underground black market for enough money you can get anything you want.
This crash, remember, is planned, it is managed it wont go out of control, they are have a meeting in DC to make sure it is managed with pillows.
it isnt going to be turmnoil, just, everyone has no jobs and if you want handouts you will have to have the chip. little by little everyone will take it. in three years it will be mandatory.
I would just get some dried goods so you dont get too hungry when the trucks stop for a few weeks.
If the arabs cut oil production to increase oil cost, they are going to shoot their foot off, they better leave well enough alone.
