That is why I watch in disbelief while the lies are incubated, hatched, and consumed by the masses. <br /><br />My point is that if this crisis hits with any sudden shock, there will be a hell of a lot of people out there wondering what hit them. Meanwhile, they seem much more at peace with the illusory world in which they live and drive, and I am the pessimistic doomer conspiracy nut. I'm OK with that, and I hope a lot of what I believe to be true turns out to be wrong...but the indicators are pointing in the wrong direction. <br /><br />For the music lovers, here is a lyric from Deadly Earnest and the Honky Tonk Heroes that runs through my head whenever I visit LA:<br /><br />You keep swervin' in my lane<br />And it's causin' lots of danger<br />I'm cussin' out your name<br />And shootin' you the finger <br />I keep flippin on my bright lights<br />'Cause you're just too dim to know<br />When you're swervin' on life's highway<br />You're runnin' someone off the road!<br /><br />Mostly, I just love the rhyme of danger and fanger...<br /><br />Pickin' onOregonSurvivorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17640765528086153569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-26501975331970639182010-03-27T02:31:19.348-07:002010-03-27T02:31:19.348-07:00@OregonSurviver

We all are responsible for these atrocities, and the consequences will be severe.<br />A couple of things, have you read Ruppert's books? Especially Crossing the Rubicon? I think it might help clarify exactly what we're up against. Also have you done any research on mind control especially concerning main stream media?<br />It isn't surprising that most people walk around with their seemingly in the clouds. The truth to remember is that peak oil isn't a theory, it's a fact. Period. The more research a person does, the easier it is to see. You have to ask yourself the question, why is the government ignoring something so vitally important to mankind? If a person does the research, learns the truth, realizes the gravity of the situation, it's astonishing that we don't have billboards spewing out information. If our government (aka three headed monster) and main stream media will so blatantly hide such a dramatic event, there is nothing the monster won't do.<br /><br />@Elmo,<br />You're the first person who even resembles a Christian (that I know of) who will face this issue. On my facebook I post stories, information about peak oil, have challenged everyone I know to watch collapse and the answer I get is, oh, just pray. Go to church every Sunday, God won't allow anything to happen to us. I even got a person telling me the rapture will save us Christians. Oh and I've been told my faith isn't strong enough and that I have too much fear! (me=throwing up in the garbage can)<br />I mean seriously? Have these people studied history at all? Read their Bibles at all? I mean we're not "special"! The rain falls on the just and unjust alike. (Not saying that I'm just and everyone else isn't, just using that as a metaphor)Anyway, going off on a rant here, but sometimes as a person who believes in the God of the Bible, it is really frustrating and I honestly can't blame people of different beliefs to look at Christians and think "wow! you guys are stupid!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-73324483532094200602010-03-26T06:41:44.479-07:002010-03-26T06:41:44.479-07:00Oregon Survivor said: "Does it sound like my ...Oregon Survivor said: "Does it sound like my head is spinning?"<br /><br />Yeah... But that's what they want, isn't it? :-)<br /><br />I expect "collapse" to be much different than most people expect. Here in America, we are set up by our own government, media, and markets to be paranoid-schizophrenics. That's why our crime rate is so high. It'll go a lot higher when folks think they won't even be able to afford beer!<br /><br />I know that if you're a true American you're not going to want to hear anything resembling Biblical prophecy. But the future I envision is straight out of the Revelation. Peak-oil, or no peak oil... I see a world where nobody is to be trusted; brother killing brother; children killing parents; people eating dead corpses to stay alive. And not simply because we run out of oil, or because we polluted the environment, or because our economy collapses, or because we enter into a state of marshal law, or any single issue. But by all of it.<br /><br />We build cities! The most destructive creation that man has ever devised, and we call them good things! Our refuge from the big-bad environment! Symbols of our power and affluence... Great devouring metropolis', with no respect for the earth on which they stand! More people work in the World Trade Center complex than ought to live on the entire eastern seaboard! And global population is increasing exponentially, thanks to our consumer mindset.<br /><br />We've forgotten how to live any other way! We say: "It's impossible to go back now!" Well, guess what, dumb-ass... YOU WILL GO BACK... or YOU WILL DIE! There are no if-ands-or-buts about it!<br /><br />Someone said that the future is impossible to predict. Well, no, not really. There's really only one human equation to solve:<br /><br />Population - Resources = ______?<br /><br />Simple "back-of-the-envelope math", as some like to say.<br /><br />It may happen 5 years from now, or it may go on for another 500 or 1000 years. I, personally, can't see how it could go on much longer. But, the simple fact remains that if we continue with this "consumer" mentality, we will use everything up, and we will STARVE TO DEATH, and there will be NOTHING TO SAVE US! And it's hard to have sympathy for all the doomed individuals, when you can see that they've set themselves up for it!<br /><br />agape_wins says this is a "support group".

Just got back from Southern California, home...Wow. Just got back from Southern California, home of MCR. We were visiting Long Beach. Other than what appears to be a decline in the port activity, ie. less container ships, life goes on as usual. Sure, the gas prices are creeping up. But the Grand Prix will go on this weekend and they have plenty of gas.<br /><br />My point being that it is a very schizoid experience knowing what we here know, yet seeing no sign of awareness in the "Real World". My family think I'm nuts. It is all life as usual as far as the masses are concerned. Collapse of the kind MCR envisions is completely unthinkable. Yet the links here point to a world that is indeed at a tipping point.<br /><br />Then again, I wonder, is this just more disaster capitalism in action? Is this the moment for the US to be shocked and awed into submission, while the transfer of wealth to the top 1% proceeds? <br /><br />Which would be worse, if Peak Oil causes Collapse, or if it is just another tool in the globalists kit to instill fear in us all? Either way, we end up screwed I guess.<br /><br />My 94 year old mother's admonition that these fears have been out there for her entire lifetime, yet have never actually come to pass, gives me pause. Then again, maybe the time has come.<br /><br />Welcome to the Hotel California. And as far as Southern California goes, you can have it. Nothing but big egos driving big SUVs like big a-holes. (No offense intended, unless you are one! I'm the prick in the BMW.)<br /><br />Is it really possible that so many people can be so unaware of such a massive impending disaster? Reduction of two thirds of the human race in the next 5 to 10 years? No food, no lights? <br /><br />Somebody ought to put up some billboards or something. <br /><br />Collapse is imminent (You're a fool to believe such nonsense.) Peak Oil will lead to power outages and food shortages (Maybe somewhere but not here; Not in your lifetime).<br /><br />Does it sound like my head is spinning? <br /><br />I dunno Mike. The place you call home is the last place on earth I would want to be if what you are predicting comes to pass.<br /><br />Peace.OregonSurvivorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17640765528086153569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-43226348825062217072010-03-25T13:53:47.211-07:002010-03-25T13:53:47.211-07:00Elmo said...

A green mantis can catch insects coming to a flower. A green mantis with some yellow on it's legs can catch an insect on a flower.<br /><br />A mantis with even more yellow and some orange can catch insects on a flower.<br /><br />At some point though, the colors of the mantis will work less for camouflage and better fro attraction. Then evolution moves faster because that trait makes the mantis more fit in that niche.<br /><br />This similar to the eyeball fallacy, where it's assumed that only a whole eyeball is functional, and that it couldn't have evolved, but been designed. in animals we have examples of all of the intermediate stages of eyeball evolution and they are all functional. From a single photosensitive cell. Cells clustered in a pocket to catch motion. Pin hole camera eyes like the nautilus. Then a membrane over the pinhole to protect the cells. Membrane widens and becomes a lens...<br /><br />It's an unfortunate circumstance that evolution isn't taught well in our schools. The random mutation theory is only a small piece of the evolution story. Most evolution in animals takes place by simply rearranging the order and frequencies of genes that already exist. Like rearranging words on a page to express different meanings.<br /><br />See Homeobox Genes for more on this.<br /><br />Sex was a giant evolutionary step and allows very rapid changes in form to occur, by constantly mixing genes and gene patterns in a population.<br /><br />This is why children never look exactly like either parent.Weaseldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12657976442272800800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-89370663271243094212010-03-25T13:11:52.092-07:002010-03-25T13:11:52.092-07:00@ Ruhh, indeed, well said re getting back to basic...@ Ruhh, indeed, well said re getting back to basics.

I&#...also to follow up on gamedog's comment...<br /><br />I've been incredibly frustrated for years about all the AGW/ACC debate. I'm also entirely sick of people out there pointing their fingers with wild claims about environmentalists' evil socialist agendas.<br /><br />Speaking for myself as a self proclaimed environmentalist pretty much since birth, my only agenda is to preserve the health of our ecosystem and promote biodiversity. Nothing, absolutely nothing is more beautiful than what nature has to offer. Wether AGW/ACC is real or not we continue to deplete and/or poison our air, water and soil at an alarming rate.<br /><br />I've been saying for years that the environmental movement should simply focus on trying to get industry and consumers to consume less, more efficiently and to reduce waste (including any kind of emissions). If we would be able to tackle the greater part of these problems I believe that AGW/ACC (real or not) would most likely resolve itself.Ruhhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07807001311524342125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-37497396774602788532010-03-25T10:58:51.012-07:002010-03-25T10:58:51.012-07:00In follow-up to gamedog's comments, I found th...In follow-up to gamedog's comments, I found this article to be a good description of how the Political Left has been so consumed with global warming, that they've abandoned a number of very important causes that they used to constantly rally behind.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.lewrockwell.com/rockwell/lost-left-climate-morass136.html" rel="nofollow">Click Here for the Article</a>businessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014863390357287025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-83161957181194334642010-03-25T10:53:00.199-07:002010-03-25T10:53:00.199-07:00alright, ive lurked too long. how in the hell do ...alright, ive lurked too long. how in the hell do i find out where/when collapse is playing? i click on the icon on the blog and i get script...nondescript script. which probably wont matter because i dont live close to major cities and i dont have tv/cable. <br /><br />so, harking back to mcr's post about a million pirates downloading the movie from various pirate hangouts, i'll pay someone fifty dollars for a copy if they give half to mcr, ive been reading ftwII for a long time, if i dont recognize yer handle its no-go. i. need. to. see. this. friggin. movie. jeezum crow, aint this the best time to be alive? so far?great brainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02319690374361347462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-80625154757165167442010-03-25T09:49:39.526-07:002010-03-25T09:49:39.526-07:00Looks like we will take everything down with us.Mo...Looks like we will take everything down with us.Money trumps everything.<br />http://uk.reuters.com/article/idUKTRE62O3I220100325Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13415186385167275704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22903415.post-24395489405087955572010-03-25T09:05:44.011-07:002010-03-25T09:05:44.011-07:00Just reserved my seat at the screening.
