Very good observations!
Too bad we could not get our "quality professional politicians" to see the same "writing on the wall" we see.
China surely has compounded the the oil problems which have been looming for a long time, but the "rose colored glasses " "professional dept heads "see problems with would not let the administrations address the real problems...If Washington does not move fast(ha ha )we will be picking coal off the railroad tracks (buy railroad stock)They will be the only means of "mass transit" we will have left in US...Maybe our China made locomotive will run off something other than coal so I dont know what will be able to "scrounge" to burn in our 55 gallon barrel stoves...
Wont be able to go to scrap yard find anything ..The Chineese have cleaned them all up!!!

You don't honestly wonder why there's no change, there's toooo much money to be made. That's why we're here this is "otherpower". We know this change will come only from people like us. God knows there's millions of us out there. BTW, how many people know that Henry Ford built electric cars with Thomas Edison before he set out on his own to build them to run on kerosene. What would the world be if he had stuck with electricity (or would he have ever made it). How much oil do we have left is a moot question! All nonrenewable's will come to an end period, so why wait till it happens?
