It means you don't have to pay 18 cents on every gallon you buy. Neither does anyone else.

I did notice a nice drop several days ago, but thought it due to lower oil prices.

Thanks for the info.

i got to admit it's pretty comical that nobody wants to face the facts of peak oil.

too bad that, once you accept the fact of peak oil, you can make sense of everything.

on the other hand, given jesus' capabilities (fishes and loaves, water into wine, etc), maybe we shouldnt have bothered with all this PNAC horseshit.

So-called "Peak Oil" is not a fact it is a PsyOp.

We have no shortage of oil.

We do have a shortage of honesty on energy production - with suppressed technology, capped oil fields, etc., ...

A. Advertising. Got to make the dog and pony show look real. The major oil companies are NOT in the OIL business they are in the Oil SHORTAGE business. Restricted production = higher prices and profit margins.

B. Who said they have to drill fields that are refilling? Although they ARE refilling. Are there even more dead dinosaurs than we thought?

there are lots of reasons to deny peak oil.

it's just too bad that, once you factor peak oil into the current situation, everything makes sense.

you'd prefer to pile conspiracy on top of conspiracy, while i think that the PNAC conspiracy, documented, is quite enough.

#24. To: lead.and.lag (#23)

Oh, it does absolutely.

If you are trying to control a large mass of people you need to have a handle on them. That handle can be either overt, through force, or covert through information control thus manipulating what people perceive to be reality. Documentarian James Burke pointed out some interesting stuff in his book and documentary "The Day The Universe Changed". One of the more interesting points was right on page one of his book: "What you see is determined by what you know." So, what a person "sees" and perceives as reality is to no small degree a result of what they know. It gives them a framework to understand the world around them. That is why for centuries everyone "knew" that the sun revolved around the earth.

The philospher Wittgenstein had some fun with that one, and this is anecdotal. Confronted by the question, "Weren't those ancients so silly and stupid to think the Sun revolved around the Earth rather than the Earth around the Sun?

To which Wittgenstein thoughtfully replied, "Yes, but I wonder how it would have looked if it did?"

The point being of course that to the observer on the ground it would have looked exactly the same.

So, if you control access to information, the types of information which people are allowed to know and are promoted, etc., you can shape public perception by presenting information which creates the desired conclusions and viewpoint. Basic PsyOps that.

So, if someone "knows" that pink oil is real then that is what they see and interpret out of the controlled news reports which themsleves in turn serve to reinforce the desired behavior and set of perceptions/interpretations of data.

Therefore it follows that if someone is fed something false then any conclusion based on false data will itself be false. If you know that 1+1=3 then you will always have the wrong answer, and never know it because you KNOW that 1+1=3 so your answer HAS to be right since it is based on what you believe to be a fact.

Personally, I prefer to get my information ad data from reliable sources rather than ABCNNBCBS-FAUX NOOZE.

too bad that the primary deniers of peak oil are allies of israel.

No new refineries have been built in at least 30 years. Interesting isn't it that "Oilman Bush" blocked the permits that were applied for by independents to build new refineries? Interesting too in that the environmental groups that oppose new drilling and refineries are largely supported by old OIL money family foundations who stand to profit quite well by blocking new production and thus keeping prices up.

That is a very telling datum.

If you have a shortage of product in a "free market" which is resulting in monopolistic pricing why would you block the introduction of new production capacity?

Why would you cap off and keep out of production the massive find at Gull Island, Alaska? Oh, and it was recently proven that Venezuela's offshore fields measure in the TRILLIONS of barrels. What a shortage! Why we might run out sometime around 2340. That is before we consider the cold fusion technology being developed in Italy, or the rumors of suppressed energy production technology in the American black budget world.

Interesting what a few "obscure" (meaning never reported by "Pills" or the Talking Heads) datums will do for your perceptions of reality.

the critical thing, when it comes to denying peak oil, is israel's awareness of peak oil... that awareness would lead to israel's motive to stage the 9/11 operation.

so... if you're gonna protect israel, you'd deny peak oil
