October 30th 2006, 2:57PM [PST] – BOSTON – I have to thank all of the FTW subscribers who introduced themselves to me at the ASPO-USA Conference in Boston. Your messages of goodwill ranged from thanking me for my reporting to wishing Mike Ruppert well. Some told me that Mike Ruppert has changed their lives. I cannot thank all of you enough for the support; we desperately need all we can get.
As I told many at the conference, Mike is ill. He has stones in both kidneys, a cataract developing in one of his eyes, hypoglycemia, calcification of an enlarged prostate gland, dangerously low blood pressure and heavy blood toxicity from both known and as yet unknown sources. More medical tests are needed. That is the bad news. The good news is that a Cuban doctor in Caracas, Venezuela, is treating him free of charge. Please send your prayers to Mike as he and FTW enter the most difficult and dark time we have ever faced.
Reuters just reported that at the Boston World Oil Conference energy investment banker Matt Simmons said that US Government data indicates world oil production might have peaked in December of 2005. FTW reported that Simmons made this statement on October 4, 2006 in the Key Breaking News Stories from Around the World section of our website. And back on September 13th, in the same section of our website, we reported that data from the Energy Information Agency (EIA) was indicating we had likely reached peak in December of 2005. Of course it was geologist Kenneth Deffeyes of Princeton who first made this prediction many months ago using Hubbert’s model.
