Its my mom's fault (as most of this kind of thing is). Its what happens when someone with the brains of a rocket scientist discovers the internet and has time on her hands. Go MOM Go!

I BT'ed The End Of Suburbia as my intro to Peak Oil. Once that was done google did the rest.

I had BT'ed Roger & Me right before it. EOS was like an answer to "why did that crazy shit happen in Flint?"

If I remember correctly, I think it was from Matt Saavinar's site. Now how in the world I found his site? Dunno... I think I was googling for preparedness information or something like that...

Art Bell show on Peak Oil + High oil prices last summer + Google search "Peak Oil" = found this site.

random comment from a guy at work prompted a search in google which was along the lines of "running out of oil" (had never heard of "peak oil" before!) fondly remember that day as "my life before"

*sob* :razz:

I WAS trying to go to peakoil.NET but typed in .COM instead.
Oops.

I discovered PeakOil the concept a month before. Doing research on mineral extraction and depletion for work.

If I remember correctly :

financialsense.com -> dailyreckoning.com -> gold-eagle.com -> dieoff.org -> energyresources -> lifeaftertheoilcrash.net -> peakoil.com

Just before the kid was born, we were up to the eyeballs in debt (renovation loan, car loan, various hire purchase loans, and still paying the remaining instalments from honeymoon trip to Europe).

I thought I ought to learn more about how the whole financial system works. Presently I was surfing the contrarian websites, with new and strange ideas never before heard of (at least for me).

Somebody on gold-eagle linked to dieoff.org and that was my introduction to Jay Hanson.

I went to dieff.org and read nearly everything I could, and found that Tom Robertson was now in charge, who pointed me to energyresources.

The ER group was where some of us first read Matt Savinar's announcement that he had just started a website and could we please come over and visit?

Then I came over here via a link on Matt's LATOC site.

From here, of course, I've gone on and discovered energybulletin.net, peakoil.net, asponews.org, and the various energy-related blogs, and I think that's more than enough sites already for now ... :lol:

One day, thinking about the war in Irak, I remembered all the stuff they used to say in the 70s about limited fossil fuels, and I decided to do a little research on the Internet. I found the Hubbert Peak site, surfed around several peak oil sites, and in the end realised this was the best one to keep in touch with the issue.

Mistype peakoil.net to peakoil and arrive here. The browser filled the missing part with .com

Actually click on a link on peakoil.net site. At that time , the latest article was "The Oil We Eat" or something like that.

Actually visit Gold-eagle.com -> dieoff.org -> Hubbert site ->Yahoo EnergyResources -> peakoil.net -> oilcrash.com -> peakoil.com -> lifeaftertheoilcrash -> http://www.bytesmiths.com/Van/-> ?????(How to live like FlintStones)

Last time in college days was interested to find out why USA was so strong and rich :twisted:

In a 1983 Reader's Digest found an article "Why US must peg to gold?" . Googled it and went to Gold-Eagle.com. Read everything there. The hope to become a US citizen evaporated by their convincing articles something like US wealth is built on a dream (American Dream). Their Canon colour printers is the real wealth producers by printing more and more IOU. Their M3 money supply grow like crazy.

Later , found dieoff.org when tried to find some article about famine in Eithopia back in 2001. Read everything there and finally understand the articles in gold-eagle.com. It is the energy stupid. Not $$

The rest is history. Colorado School of Petroleum -> EnergyResources->
Robert Attack the petrol head -> Campbell site and finally a link to peakoil.com

When I was first researching peak oil, I got a link to peakoil.net, and I found it very informative. I would check that site every day, and one day, I just forgot the extention to use, and I tried peakoil.com. It ended up taking me to this site, and I didn't immediatly notice the difference. The thought that I was thinking was, "hmm, they did a site revamp. Cool, more news". Then I realised I was at the wrong site once I saw that ASPO's logo was nowhere to be found. I decided that this site was more informational, and I have since set peakoil.com as my homepage.

Link on the football forum at texags.com. Pretty random.
