Gokuma Posted August 22, 2005 Specifically about stuff to do yourself and in your community to be more self-sufficient and stuff, apparently so people are more motivated to buy books from the ever-expanding site store to find out what to do. What an asshole. Well he is a lawyer I think. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted August 22, 2005 Gokuma is crazy and believes in Peak Oil, that's about it. Oh and Bushitler is probably helping cause Peak Oil for some nerfarious reason. 0 Share this post Link to post
Piezo Posted August 22, 2005 That's what kind of made me feel uneasy about Peak Oil, the fact that it justifies what Bush(itler) is doing in the middle east. I've done a bit of research on the subject (all internet based, and a couple of episodes of "Extreme Oil" on PBS) and I've come to the conclusion that the soothsayers are ignoring the fact that there's so much oil in the earth while the naysayers are ignoring that the population is growing out of control. I read a good article linked from somewhere in the Peak Oil forums a while back posted by some agent, but it made a very good point. Here is the article, but that's not the place where I first read it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Gokuma Posted August 23, 2005 Ok, I am crazy, but it wouldn't hurt to be more self-sufficient no matter happens. You're an idiot if you think things are unlimited. 0 Share this post Link to post

But the real threat is the economic growth of China, which will suck up oil like a sponge. 0 Share this post Link to post
AndrewB Posted August 23, 2005 Um no, oil out there IS unlimited. Just look at how many galaxies there are out there. What are the chances of there being NO more oil reserves out there? Do you honestly think the human race will deplete all of the universe's oil reserves out there? I don't think so out there. 0 Share this post Link to post

There must be a reason China and Iran is buddying up like they are. It certainly isn't love. 0 Share this post Link to post

When you feel the urge to troll in an unnecessarily ridculous manner, find a desk with a deep drawer in it. Open the drawer and put your head in it. Slam the drawer shut as hard as you can. If you can still feel your arm, do it again. Continue until you lose consciousness. With any luck, when you wake up, you'll have forgotten what it is you were going to be such an asshole about.

Besides, there's no such thing as "rocketology"; you must be thinking of aerospace/astronautical/rocket engineering/science. Also, whether it's 1,000,000 depends on the unit of measurement, which you haven't specified. And please don't misuse the word "astronomical". 0 Share this post Link to post
