Mq,

It appears that you have a new "cargo cult" appearing on your doorstep:

It seems that this "peak oil" talk is spreading far and wide these days.....

Would you care to describe my final solution which is as bad as Auschwitz and the 1000 Year Reich and which is as bad as Islamic Jihad's planned fascist takeover of everything?

Where we agree and where we disagree.

Most things in this world are not either black or white.

I agree with you in that we will be using science and technology to make our lives better and to use it to solve a lot of our problems. I am very optimistic about that.

I agree with you in that we should seek peace and harmony.

I know you will disagree with my characterization of your weltanshauung, but

Where I disagree with you is when you paint a billion people here and a billion people there as ugly, stupid, and incorrigible killers and have to be dealt with in a forceful manner.

I know you don't say that in those words, but that is what I get when I read some of your stuff.

Okay, I can't give my solution on how to handle disagreeable people, but I know that use of force and killing is not a solution. However, I know that the first thing we have to do is to do no harm.
