THE WHEELS COME OFF OF THE WHEELS THEY JUST PUT ON TO REPLACE THE OTHER WHEELS

February 1, 2009 --8:30 PM, PST -- This has been implicit in everything we developed at FTW and all that I have written for the last seven years. The New World Order will fail, almost at its birth, to produce anything that has been anticipated. The quote that follows from the linked story is perhaps the most profound sentence I have read in a deacde or more. -- "European court judgments whose interpretation they left to EU obsessives: it is now illegal – illegal – for the government of an EU country to put the needs and concerns of its own population first." The European Union is self-destructing at warp speed. As the story explains, the reasons are obvious and you should read every word of it. It's not just that the inevitable protectionism is going to erupt with its eventual viciousness; it's that when it does erupt, the nations that cause the most harm will be jeopardizing the safety of their citizens who work in the countries they cause harm to. British jobs no longer belong to British subjects... they belong to Europe. This is a recipe for absolute chaos and I don't see how the EU can hold together. The European version of the New World Order is falling apart before it's even had a full debut.

Can you see the potential for hate, crimes, savagery and pogroms all over Europe?

That's the way the dinosaurs died... They behaved like dinosaurs. It was all they knew. Perhaps a moment of some dim clarity hit them before they perished. But we are humans and we are -- although highly flawed -- much more intelligent than dinosaurs. It is this moment of clarity that I have been waiting for (it seems like my whole life) and it's beginning to happen.

As I have been hinting on this blog for a while... a massive global repatriation is about to begin. That by itself will generate drama like we have not seen in our lifetimes. I have always said that
geography trumps everything. Relocalization has never been an option; it has always been an inevitability. But relocalization takes on a whole new meaning when what, a half a billion or a billion people decide to go home in a big hurry?

To me this is a positive development vis a vis the EU. Because the sooner it is apparent that the old plans don't work, the more we'll see openings to make our case... and to change the end game. And the very last sentence of the story gives us very good reason to be grateful we're here in the U.S. if you ponder on it for a while.

Even in China, with all of it's ethnicities, the result will be the same... relocalization. And woe to those who are trapped in unfriendly regions.

It is good to be home.

I think I'll need to ask Doug Lewis to let me sing another song for you guys soon. He's the band leader for a kick-ass band called The Cheeters. They have a guitar player named Michael Joost who is just breathtaking and works an acoustic or an electric as good as Steve Stills. A while ago I watched the guy play classical guitar on a Fender P base. I'm just listening to a new CD of theirs -- which I love -- and am actually going to write a review for them. I have a great many nice things to look forward to. My personal experience lately is that a lot of love and blessings have been coming my way. I am having friendships blossom with sweetness and beauty, and some loved ones have come back. In the midst of all this I'm smiling bigger smiles than I have in years.

Hang tough guys,

THE GRASSHOPPER, THE ANT AND SUNDRY OTHER LIFEFORMS

We may be smarter than dinosaurs but we're still dumber than yeast.

The Chris Martensen website that everyone's talking about underscores the insidious way in which exponents creep up on you. In the end they're still moving at the same rate but my, how they've grown. And when a monster creeps, the world shakes.

Say you have a yeast culture that doubles in size every minute (not biologically possible but this is an abstract problem.) It's 12:00 AM and the culture consists of a few unassuming cells in a Petri dish. In twenty-four hours the culture will fill the room.

Question: At what time will the culture fill only half the room?

Answer: 11:59 PM.

You can hardly blame yeast for getting caught by that one.

Especially when we're replicating their example, albeit with more subtle numbers than 'double.' Using rates closer to 4%, exponential growth is what's driving the population explosion, Peak Oil and the economy.

A couple of months ago we observed that for the United States to create its first trillion dollars took its entire history of two hundred plus years. To create the next trillion took the last six months.

When will we start to notice? When we're creating a trillion dollars every six minutes?

Did you shudder as the shadow of the sword of Damocles settled overhead last week, ie when the word "hyperinflation" crept onto CNN?

Here in New York City is where a hefty per cent of the Smart Set lives. At least, that's our reputation and certainly some of us believe it ourselves; it's the reason we put up with the rats on the subway.

We are the industrious ant; we work at what we've been told will bring us security and respect.

And we're really good at it; "If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere."

But what if the ant had it all wrong? After all, grasshoppers aren't extinct either. Ants are busy little bees and look at what's happening to the bees.

The old paradigm dies hardest here because the dream is most vivid. We tolerate the rats on the subway en route to a cocktail party with rats in Armani suits. We are in the eye of the storm. Indeed, we are at most one degree of separation from the people who manufactured the storm, so we're the last to see it coming.

We feverishly forge ahead building our awe-inspiring monuments and aedifices, because it's all we know how to do. Meanwhile we pray they'll be finished and we can get our fifteen seconds of fame before the laws of nature move in and show who's boss.
