Now You See It... Now You Don't Aaron Dunlap, PeakOil.com Some of you will recall my observations on recent Chinese web traffic dominating the numbers here at peakoil.com. Well another interesting development has occurred. So one day last year the Great Firewall of China seemed to fall, and with it came a barrage of web traffic to our website. In fact, Beijing alone was a full 20% of our total traffic in Sept last year. (And apparently 100% lurkers) So here is the kicker... The very next month, in October 2006... not a single visit from the entire country of China. And not one visit since then either. China went from the Peakyist city in the world, to absolutely silent... nothing... blank. Fascinating. Scary. (10 Apr 2007) energybulletin.net

I heard that story. Cancer can be somewhat chronic. I don't believe it would be beneficial for our leader to be fighting the disease nor would it be conducive to his or her ability to focus on the affairs of this country and world. IT would certainly be healthier for anyone with cancer to avoid the job of President. Have you all noticed how much each man has aged during his term or terms? Being President can't be good for your health. We'd be doing Thompson a favor by over looking him.
