The world has reached the point where we are extracting as much oil at once as possible. This is called peak oil production. Now we will able to produce only LESS oil than say, yesterday. This has everything to do with how much oil is in the earth not how efficient we are at extraction. As we increase our population and consumption we require more and more oil but will only recieve less and less. EVERYTHING we have in our homes, buildings, parks, every little thing manufactured is available because of oil. As oil runs out we won't be able to make enough food, transportation, electricity, EVERYTHING. We need to change how we live and operate as individuals AND as societies. This site and the books and videos have a lot of information and interesting insight. You can find most of these items at your public library or university libraries....

I wasn't expecting a reaction in the first place.

I gave out a bunch of harmonicas to the vagrants around my office.
My thinking is they will do better and possibly entertain people.
My friends gave me a hard time becuse they thought I did it out of pure mischief.

Please do not comment on his sexual preference (because none of us know)... Please make a logical argument.

Personally, I am an avid Michael Jackson fan and will defend him to death. I have a pretty solid opinion on the trial and verdict. I would just like someone to give me a solid argument on why he should have been convicted other than he is creepy or gay.

The best answer will receive 50 points (given Best Answer on 4 similar questions including this one).

Why is it that modern-day muscle men (wrestlers, body builders, athletes, etc.) are much more defined and larger than the wrestlers, body builders and such from back in the 30's, 40's, and 50's? Is it that we have different nutrition now (i.e. growth hormones in animal products, fresher foods, more meat) than we did back then? Or is it because of the way society expects these types people to look and how that has changed over the years?

Has the Bush Administration rendered these words meaningless? You know how when you repeat a word over and over again pretty soon it starts to sound weird and have no meaning? I'm starting to feel that these two words, specifically, are losing meaning.

I know people who believe it is white and some whom believe it is not white. Please give me your opinions.

Is it pop culture? Is it no rules? Is it making money, without ethics? What is this culture all about? Freedom does not explain culture, so don't give me that. Be specific. Are we the culture of lude, crude, superficial behaviours, searhing for such nonsense as fame without a soul, money without the method used to attain it, success through taking steroids or cheating, that only winning first place matters, that second place has no value? What describes this culture in america. Is it a proud one, or a shameful one, does ethics, morals, honesty, and humbleness come to be valued or irrelavant on one's life to attain all the superficial crap? Is keeping up with the Jones, the correct way to live, or considered stupid and shameful to be so lack of self esteem to worry about what other people think of you.
