For a minute there I thought I had to get off my couch, when all the while the fact is we don't have to do anything much but keep things afloat for just a few decades more! In fact, we'd best shut up about PO, because if our offspring finds out we knew about it all along, they'll turn and wring our necks come 2036!

The GregEllis quote is good, although its basically saying he is a Post Carbon reject. Reminds me of that scene in Stripes when Murray talks about being American because 'we were kicked out of every decent country in the world'.

But, are you asking how the quote should be chosen, if there should be one, how often should it change etc ?

It's good, I like how you click on the name and it takes you to the thread where it was said. Can you track how many clicks a quote gets ? Then we can see what piques peoples interest. How to pick the quote I don't know. Is there a way to do it automatically ?

I like these ones

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.~Theodore Roosevelt
Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.-H.G. Wells

but I can't vouch for their authenticity...quotes of forums tend to be altered and edited slightly as they move around the net.
