A letter from the Future
Greetings to you, people of the year 2009! You are living in the year of my birth; I am one hundred years old now, writing to you from the year 2109. I am using the last remnants of the advanced physics that scientists developed during your era, in order to send this electronic message back in time to one of your computer networks. I hope that you receive it, and that it will give you reason to pause and reflect on your world and what actions to take with regard to it.
Of myself I shall say only what it is necessary to say: I am a survivor. I have been extremely fortunate on many occasions and in many ways, and I regard it as something of a miracle that I am here to compose this message. I have spent much of my life attempting to pursue the career of historian, but circumstances have compelled me also to learn and practice the skills of farmer, forager, guerrilla fighter, engineer - and now physicist. My life has been long and eventful . . . but that is not what I have gone to so much trouble to convey to you. It is what I have witnessed during this past century that I feel compelled to tell you by these extraordinary means.
You are living at the end of an era. Perhaps you cannot understand that. I hope that, by the time you have finished reading this letter, you will

if we are headed back to
pre 1776 then I for one would rather live under a constitution and bill of rights than I would under a Monarchy.
In that I think energy alternatives are being held back..
Hemp.. hydrogen.. etc.. It's a damn control game and I will not live in fear or feel helpless.

I asked Richard once about industrual hemp
and Richard went off on some manic rant about how there is not enough earth and water to grow all the hemp we would need to grow to try to sustain our currant path.
I told Richard I disagreed with him because we have alternatives, such as industrial hemp, but we are limited to what we can purchase because we do not have a free market for energy, but are slaves to an oil market.
I got a huge applause. Richard is a NWO propegandist. He's an Al Gore manipulator and I think he's paving the way to nuclear energy.
He's an energy sheppard for the nuclear energy looking for sheep with his PEAK BS
WE ARE GOING TO WIN!

It's not like a John Titor scam this guy is brilliant!
Richard Heinberg has been writing for years on resource shortages (oil in particular). His mp3's that are available on the web are VERY interesting and good information. If ever there was a guy with the knowledge to write such an article - this is him. Take a look at some of his other lectures and videos - just google him on Google / Videos. You guys that are not Peak Oil fans will not like what you hear.

yep.
but that was a pretty mild take on the 'culling'.

I'd say it's about 50/50 B.S.
the self-sufficiency thing is good, but the rest of it not having any power is pure B.S.
Windmills have been around before there was power in America to get water, drainage ditches, etc. I would suspect if there were no power, the water tables would actually increase quite nicely as the ag farmers could no longer use 10-20HP pumps for 100's of gallons per minute on their orchards.
Also - given 3 or 4 or 5 years of rainfall like the author spoke of would cause drastic increases in water tables and snowpacks.
Since the aquifers would not be depleted at their current rate, the drought years would manage reasonably well as long as there was some method of pumping water - back to windmills or solar powered pumps.
People were doing just fine off of hand dug wells in the early 1880's and 1890's. I have a neighbor who still uses his and it's 160' deep in an area that was homesteaded in the 1870's in California. I might add he also planted a 100 acre walnut orchard that still exists today.
Typical fear-mongering article from a wacko environmentalist.
