$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('mos6507', 'M')aybe if we didn't create threads specifically to open up an endless personal dialogue with cornies like shortonsense then it wouldn't be this way.

[davep]

If a cornie starts a thread and no one reads it, does it exist?

You have it backwards Schmuto/cashmere/who-knows-who-else.

The only reason Cornucopian posting seems to have gone up is because doomer posting has gone down. In spring and summer of last year the doomers here (yourself included) were all in hysterics and were posting like mad. Then when the price of oil crashed some of them quit - a few even did so publicly. I also know I am personally responsible for at least 2 doomers quitting (Roccland and someone else, I forget who). Then when Lehman and the economy collapsed the business/economy section became the doomer's favorite spot, but now that things have settled down even that section has slowed down. So what you're seeing is attrition by doomers who are beginning to realize they aren't going to get what they want, and the 4-6 cornies have stuck around and continued posting as a way of saying, "See? I told ya so."

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Dr. Ofellati', 'I')t seems to me that the rate of posting of the 4-6 cornucopians on the board (of2, antidoomer, maddog, short on sense) is substantially higher than it was a year ago.

Is it just me?

I view this as another sign that we're even closer to the big pop - it's like the voice getting louder and louder - "do NOT look behind the curtain, all is well. DO NOT LOOK BEHIND THE CURTAIN."

Once again you have it wrong.

There are no more or fewer "flies" here now than there were a half year ago, or a year ago, nor are they "buzzing" any more or less than they were then. They are just more noticeable because so many of the "non-flies" have died off.

And that's about the only "dieoff" you'll ever see.

[Dr. Ofellati]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('OilFinder2', 'O')nce again you have it wrong.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('thuja', 'M')aybe a few more corny posts. But a heck of a lot less uberdoomer posts- thanks and praise to Allah...! Doomsteadtopians need to be forcibly removed from this site so that real discussions can take place.

I have decoded a secret message while wearing my tinfoil hat, and I now have PROOF that we are all going to die, and soon!

It's in code though, so you have to know where to look.

I have posted article snippets, urls, and bolded the important bits so you can see for yourself! PROOF I tell you!

Here it is...have a look, if you dare:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '

production

is falling

off a cliff.

See?! I TOLD YOU!

And isn't it just like the big oil companies to hide the nefarious message in an innocuous news story! These people are TEH EVIL!!!

Now, grab your gun, and a box of ammo!

[Ludi]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('shortonsense', '

[shortonsense]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Ludi', '

Seems kind of like painting with a really broad brush to me....

[Ludi]

Thanks for clarifying.

[Ludi]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '
')The cornie/doomer post rate is up. Lots of the smart doomers are gone, done wasting time. I'll be leaving soon. My beautiful passive/active solar home is almost complete and its time for me to build sheds, shop, chicken coop, and orchard. Time to sail on to the promised land. Hope you all will miss me. I stopped learning anything new here quite a while ago.

[Maddog78]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '

[dinopello]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Maddog78', 'b')tw, what is MD20/20? You've used it a few times. I don't get the reference. Eyesight or vision?
It's obviously an insult of some type.
