Are you shocked?

A vivid image of what should exist acts as a surrogate for reality. Pursuit of the image then prevents pursuit of the reality -- John K. Galbraith

Well, I didn't necessarily mean awed by a forum full of socialists. ;)

More like by the financial markets, people and general and Serious People(TM).

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

But a big part of the problem is that a lot of "serious people" will have to go down hard if Obama is going to have any chance of doing anything that'll matter more than a snowflake in the fires of Hell.

Rather more Shock and much less Awe for the "serious people," please.
