I forgot my rule never to discuss Peak Oil!

General discussions of the systemic, societal and civilisational effects of depletion.

The question was what the future holds.

Looking at my kids it holds nothing but virtual reality.

Note the different "feel" btwn. the good old pics that I posted back in the day compared to the pervasive digital pics nowadays.

I did mention the words "peak oil" to a bunch of teenagers, but I quickly redacted it. Unfortunately some of the students I was talking to looked it up on their "smart phones". I hope they don't find out too much about it.

A couple years ago, I was in line for a haircut and just completely ruined the future of this Mexican kid. He listened and really got it. I watched his face fall and was thinking to myself, Good job. You communicated with that guy. Of course, I totally ruined his day. I gotta keep that in mind and not go after people like that.

^Yes, that can happen. Some will accept there is a problem like this and others won't accept it.

I once discussed peak oil with a gas station attendant in Finland. At the end of my speech, the guy said "Öljy on mukavaa" ... Oil is nice.
The station is up for sale.
