Anyone watch "Three Days of the Condor", the 1975 movie? That involved a plot to invade the Middle East for the oil. Remember what Higgins, the CIA guy, said at the end of it?
Quote:
Turner: Boy, what is it with you people? You think not getting caught in a lie is the same thing as telling the truth?
Higgins: No. It's simple economics. Today, it's oil, right? In ten or fifteen years... food. Plutonium. And maybe even sooner. Now, what do you think the people are gonna want us to do then?
Turner: Ask them.
Higgins: Not now. Then. Ask them when they're running out. Ask them when there's no heat in their homes and they're cold. Ask them when their engines stop. Ask them when people who've never known hunger start going hungry. You wanna know something? They won't want us to ask them. They'll just want us to get it for them.
I think of that ending a lot these days.

I did this for a while, and I drank up to 1.5 gallons of water per day. I went to the bathroom every half hour, but I was plenty hydrated.
For TV, I have found that AM radio fills that void. Right now, I am listening to KQQQ and Coast to Coast AM is now on.
