Apocalypse Culture!

I was surprised the depletion of world resources wasn't on your list of ways we are going to shuffle off of this big blue marble. Just to scare the heck out of people who care, do a websearch on the words "Peak oil" and see when the experts think that we are going to run out of oil. Then, the next time you go grocery shopping, think of how many of the products that you buy are produced (and not shipped) in your hometown. Sleep well.

Good point!I'll add that next update, even though I doubt that we will all die collectively as a result of this occurence, there are people on this ball of dirt who don't rely on those things to survive, but you bring up an interesting idea.I'll sleep, but not as well, to be sure, but then I never do anyway...

Today's (8-14) power outage is just the begining. It is predicted amongst energy experts that by 2012 there will be a perminent power outage. Sorry folks, the party is over. We're running out of resourses.

P.S. Just a side note. Has it occured to anyone else that gas prices have doubled in three years?

In WW2 the Germans were using synthetic gasoline and diesel fuel because supplies were cut off. We have the technology today to do the same for about $4.00/gallon. If fossil fuel runs out, the world will not end.

By the way, the sky is not falling either.
