Just like that last little flirtation with the end of the world when the clocks and chips and all the gooh-ghas would know what to do with 2000. Did you miss it Jim? The world collapsed and chaos reigned supreme. Pass the popcorn..

My thoughts...? Should be left on the stable floor where it/they belong.

Good day and the best to you Beve! As a youngster I lived andworked on a farm that had six boars and twenty or so sows. We pastured the sows and kept the boars outside as well but separate.... When piggies were coming we took the sows inside and partitioned-off a corner with a heat lamp to...

ITN You are one ballsy guy! You'd like to paint the picture that the United States of Rampant Consumerism can be "let-off-the-hook" in terms of contributing more to global warming than anyone else....because recently China used more fuel? I understand....we'll just discount the decades of...

ITN I like golf...used to play...can't any more but still like the game. And of course it only makes sense that those contributing most to the thaw receive the benefits!

Lone Wolf Well it seems only fair to base that idea on who uses the most fossil fuel in the world gets first pick.

Gee now Harper can convince his pals in Washington to free up a little cheap gasoline for the lawn mower we'll need to keep America's golf greens trimmed up around the pole!

Sure nothing wrong with persistence.... If the "believers" had kept at it.... The sun would circle the earth today! You can "believe" anything. Where there's a problem is when your "beliefs" are provably incorrect. Now that doesn't mean that simply because you got one thing wrong that...

Eanassir How popular are your views in Israel?

Tridedit Perhaps "spirituality" has more to do with being available to consideration of the incredible.... Maybe the whole "creator-god" mysticism is about a challenge to remain open to possibilities..... I don't have a great deal of animosity toward the notion of "spirtuality", I have however...

A vision of existence. A consciousness that is “I” lives’ near the bottom of gravity well. Now whether this is by “design” or not doesn’t really matter. What does matter is that this single circumstance affords a degree of predictability that doesn’t exist beyond. I’m inclined to believe that...

Well all this stuff sure is a poser.... Food riots and water riots , nuclear war and comets screaming out of the sky impacting earth will ruin your day. Some will survive and some won't. And thus it has always been......

Yes a knowledge of primitive survial strategies is very useful. Most folk today wouldn't have a clue how to butcher hang or dress an animal of any kind! But they would of course know that you can rob those who have made preparations and have the skills to survive. In an extreme scenario, it will...

G'day Dex! I find myself less and less interested in much that's happening in these threads... Of course the option is my own insofar as continuing to bother with reading this tripe or not... But the investment in time and effort attempting to wheedle some sense out of this stuff...well...

So why do you bother Dex?

Lester That's how I lived as a youngster. It may be ..what does Springsteen sing..."Glory days"...my memory of those times, but we were healthy and we worked hard and played hard. We were self-reliant not dependent on the municipality for electricity or dependent on city-hall for licensing our...

Juan It happened. It wasn't the only time it's happened. And it won't be the only time it will ever happen. My grandmother lived through both world wars and her kitchen was a marvel! Right up until her death she canned and pickled, baked and pre-prepared many different kinds of food that...

Juan Were you perhaps off-planet when a breaker in Cleveland (somewhere in Ohio) didn't respond correctly and fifty million people lost their electricity? Don't "expect" that your conveniences will be there all the time forever because they won't be!

Karrie, your postulation regarding the absence of electricity to power entertainment is provocative. The situation wherein the infrastructure suffers serious calamity resulting in loss of power is akin to the notion that Tonnington has raised. Our dependence on electricity for everything from...
