It's the "When" that is important.
For years the major news media have only been reporting the rosy predictions of economists and politicians. They have skipped over the subject of "Peak Oil" for too long. Now, events around the world are making it obvious and they can no longer hide it under the rug. it has to be talked about.
But it's too late to change our industrial infrastructure to accomodate alternate energy sources. The transformation necesseary needs many decades to occur. If we started in the 1970s we would have had a chance. Now the only thing that can maintain our standard of living (for a few more years) is WAR.
WAR is now the only option.
