He must be a socialist * :-) More interesting (to me) is his home page http://www.dieoff.com/ with graphs on fossil fuel depletion (a sense of deja vu here). We're all doomed! His BEST case has things going away big-time from 2010 onwards and most scenarios from before now (about 2000 on). So most of us should get to see it happen (unless something more revelationary intervenes :-) ). Mayhaps Mr Bush and friends are taking this far nore seriously than some people. It would certainly explain the Iraqi situation very well. And also lunar bases. I'll plump for the lunar Helium 3 myself. I suspect this is a factor that this site has ignored. Strip mining in Mare Tranquilitatis by 2010?
