glenn, I just finished chapter 1, The Petroleum Man, and it is one of the most eye opening things I've ever read.

thread regulars need to buy this book.

amazon.com

I've known for some time that the US is in deep sh*t for economic reasons. I now know that we (and most of the rest of the world) are in even deeper sh*t for other reasons. with our economic and energy problems combined, it makes me wonder what I will have to do to survive.

mrs. ork already thinks I'm a lunatic pessimist. I wonder what she is going to say when in a few years, not only am I not going to want to trade up to a nicer house (which I've been promising her we could have when the RE market crashes and burns), I'm going to want to sell our condo and move out west. that's where there aren't many people, but there is plenty of water, land on which we can raise our own food, and trees which we can cut down and burn for heat. <g/ng>

[EDIT] I have a wine cellar with 150 (and growing) bottles of expensive wine. How am I going to move them with me (and keep them at 55 degrees)?
