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

With the many reports of "demand destruction" in poor countries, it's likely the "Zimbabwe disease" will be spreading in the near future.
hi,
I don't know if this is right location for a question, but I'd really like to know your (everyone's) thoughts on a 9/11 style attack on American soil in the coming months. With the Iran talk intensifying, Homeland security starting to mumble about "imminent threats", 9/11 criticism gaining momentum and waning support for foreign military adventures... A lot of people feel another false flag attack to rally the masses and silence critics could be on it's way.
Am i way off here? What are your thoughts?
Thanks
It's useful to read investment newsletters because of their frankness. Here's one I just received.

I would agree with you Jeremy. But I don't know if the problem now is that they're putting out disinformation to keep us guessing to make it harder to predict an imminent attack or if we just learned how to read all of the warning signs since 9/11.
