RE: Washington considers a decline of world oil production as of 2011
Couple of things raised eyebrows in this, first was that this email interview was based on the "EIA 2009 Energy Conference" info, from April 09, i.e. it's been out for almost a year before we see it, and even then it's in a French newspaper, no mention in the MSM.
The graph on page 8 of the pdf linked in the article, it labels as “unidentified” the additional supply projects needed to fill in a gap they expect in 2011. (based on a 2% p.a. supply decline rather than 6% decline which is more realistic IMO)
Considering a 5 year lead time on new projects, there's no leap of imagination required to realise there's no new supply coming on line to fill said gap, otherwise it would not be "unidentified".
So, Washington now acknowledges the predicament, does this mean we are officially screwed, and by lack of mitigating action (besides all the warring n stuff), the collapse is officially sanctioned?
It's sad really, a lot could have been done to prepare for transition, but instead they'd rather condemn society and line their pockets.
Part of me was hoping there would be some politician somewhere getting an attack of conscience by now, part of me that still has a modicum of faith in the good side of human nature, it'll be real sad to lose that tiny bit of faith completely, I don't think it will be long now.

Excuse me, but isn't it always prudent to ask why someone is offering you something for nothing? Have we forgotten the lessons of Troy?
I ain't saying it's right, just that one should always expect foul-play; especially when technology is involved.
Re "White Supremacist Rally Turns Violent." These Nutzi buffoons get played like old fiddles. They are no match for the safely-entrenched liberals of academe.

Is now a good time to buy the silver/gold that I took out a loan for?
Just one small question for anyone that would like to help a fellow reader of this website out. Does anyone know of a "reputable" company where I can buy american gold coins at a "small markup"???? I just don't want to get ripped off. I don't have to convince any of you of how tough this world has gotten.
@Chuckp,
I have had excellent service and pricing from California Numismatic Investments. No relation except that I am a satisfied customer. I haven't found better pricing, if you do let me know!

ChuckP:
I bought a silver bar from kitco.com, didn't have any issues at all. Pretty reputable site by all accounts.
