With the arrival of Peak Oil, the curtain has closed on Act 1 of the drama Petroleum Man. What will happen in Act 2? Chekhov said, "If there's a gun on the wall at the beginning of the play, by the end it must go off." In the world's nuclear arsenal are many guns on the wall. If life copies art, will there be an Act 3 in which the players, having learned their lesson the hard way, live sustainably? To explore these and other questions... FTW's Act 2 Blog. Read, comment, take heart! Orkin

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/08/01/AR2006080101300.html So, NORAD was lying? Well, time to throw out the 9/11 Commission Report.
http://www.vanityfair.com/features/general/060801fege01 Uh, this guy needs to understand that there were several war games going on that day.
I got as far as this before I called bullshit:
"In order to find a hijacked airliner—or any airplane—military controllers need either the plane's beacon code (broadcast from an electronic transponder on board) or the plane's exact coordinates. When the hijackers on American 11 turned the beacon off, intentionally losing themselves in the dense sea of airplanes already flying over the U.S. that morning (a tactic that would be repeated, with some variations, on all the hijacked flights), the NEADS controllers were at a loss."
According to this lame excuse, the military could never conduct defensive operations against enemy aircraft - who also wouldn't have beacons turned on (also known as IFF). This discredits the entire VF article. It's a complete crock of shit.
RE Nuke/Enviros. From this article I hear "wolves in sheeps clothing" once again. It's such an old PR trick and there's always someone willing to put on a monkey suit if the price is right. This makes me ill. Must we lower our standards in order to keep our standard of living? Are we all prostitutes? Everyone has their price I guess. I saw Christine Todd Whitman on an HBO-Bill Mayer show, (Real Time). One would think she did heaps for cleaning up New Jersey and she creates the appearance of a person who cares. Gee how deceiving that was. The new "BP" commercials are so slick to the unknowing--(The music creshendos--and BP saves the world!)
Thank you FTW for helping us connect the dots and for exposing the wolves behind the curtain.
many thanks. more's on the way.
