Old news perhaps, but FYI, Chapter 19 is out.

I wonder if he is a member here. I'm sure he reads the site.

If you read this Chris, you da man.

He's here but I don't think he posts hardly ever.

I just checked, all of the completed chapters are functioning just fine, including chapter 19.

"Out" as in available to the public.

I think its awesome that Chris came up with these conclusions before some of this stuff happened. Who would have thought that Lehman, Fannie, Freddie, and AIG would go down in the same week. Even Chris thought it was happening to fast.

If you haven't, you should check his daily posts on his home page. He usually makes comments on what happened in the economy each day.

Only caught this today. Classy doomer porn, unlike the typical obscenities we're used to. :-D

Great link for the uninformed, assuming any of us are still trying to spread the word. It's so easy to cross the line from teaching to preaching collapse. Chris has the perfect approach imo.

I thought "doomer porn" was a pejorative term.

Not in the connotation above.

There is a high degree of probability that I will in fact, indeed, verifiably and unequivocally pee my pants when the next chapter comes out.

The stuff he puts out is doomer porn AMBROSIA. It makes me curse like a well digger. Other parts of me itch for no reason. I think I lost consciousness for a while on #18. I've gutted my living room, nothing left but an alter, some candles, a couple of flowing curtains, the walls and ceiling are covered with newspaper clippings, chicken parts are littered about, I think there might be something wrong with me, but I can't be sure.

If I had the means I would offer a large reward to anyone who could offer undeniable, empirical, and duplicatable evidence to refute his offered theories and projections. I do not believe it can be done without resorting to new math. The video series does not just hit the nail on the head, he SLAMS it home. For now I'll offer a 20 pound sack of rice, and I'll pay the postage-overnight, to anyone who can meet the above criteria. This reward offer is valid unless and until the guy changes his work according to his own disclaimer. Still, he is holding back. Human population dieoff is a subject which needs to be addressed. If he can present that problem in as clear a manner as the 3 Es, he should be nominated for the Nobel in literature (tweak the rules). This is work on a grand scale.

I almost died laughing! This post got me off the low stool I practice on for when the SHTF. I look forward to more posts like it.

Great post! Watched the entire series back to back. I think the doomers may be right. The human population is showing signs of a bubble and the back side of the slope is going to be pretty horrific.

The one thing that got me the most is the example of Fenway Park and the "magic" drop of water. The drop started to multiply @ 12 noon and at 12:44 the floor was covered in only 5 feet of water, it only took another 5 minutes for the entire park to be filled up. Do you know what time it is?

If the concept that oil came from previous living matter that was once on the Earth's surface, then the dieoff will provide future generations of humans will oil, perhaps millions of years later, but the human race may buck the trend of a species living and thriving for only 100,000 to 4 million years.

But in light of the fact that the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are on a collision course, does any of this really matter?

Early in the series, he discusses money supply...

And like so many others Chris doesn't look very closely at just who is controlling that money supply and how a plan forumlated hundreds of years ago is just now coming to fruition. Of course he can be forgiven because like all of us, was born into a hobbled educational system. REAL monetary theory has not been taught for over 3 generations now.

The "global" economic crises, like all other economic crises before is an engineered construct designed with one goal in mind and that is slavery, this time "global" slavery. The beauty being future slaves will actually think they are free, just like us, but have zero freedom, unlike us.

Dig a little deeper and it will become crystal clear, things like growing your own food and owning your own land will not be realities considered by future generations after this permanent contraction. Money will cease to exist and be completely replaced by the electronic "debit" card. Birth will equal instant debt and thus equal slavery but somehow being human, they will convince themselves of being the most freedom loving generation to walk the earth :lol:

Half of the oil ever used is more than enough oil to enslave a planet of dumbed down survivors. It's pure genius and running right on schedule, the chaos is only in your own mind. Good luck!
