How then, do we move backwards? How does a society, with most of the people having no clue of future events, move from being dependent on a vast and intertwined network of goods and services produced by the indigenous people of whereever, to a local resource and renewable energy based society, and do so in the timeframe available (20-30 years using the most liberal extimates, 10-20 with resonable estimates, 5-10 with worst case scenarios), all the while prices on everything increasing, world politics getting more militaristic, governments continuously reducing civil liberties, shortages of goods on the market and weather patterns resembling bad Hollywood movies?

Ali Samsam Bakhtiari (1948 - 2007)
"Daily Reckoning" (scroll down half the article)
*** And a note from our intrepid correspondent, Byron King…
"We note with sadness the passing of Ali Samsam Bakhtiari (1948 - 2007), of Tehran, Iran. Mr. Bakhtiari was a former director of the National Iranian Oil Company, and a vocal proponent of the Peak Oil school of thought. I was a regular correspondent with Mr. Bakhtiari, and Agora Financial was privileged to publish a number of articles based on material that Mr. Bakhtiari forwarded to me."
Mr. Bakhtiari died suddenly. Byron will publish a more detailed obituary in the next few days. Meanwhile, we express our condolences to the Bakhtiari family.
