Exactly - and while he has been very controversial, I haven't seen him promote anything in particular and he is a believer in Peak Oil on the same time frame as Campbell and advocates alternative energy. This is really why his contentiousness and hostile attitude has me confused more than anything. His position behind the rhetoric is very similar to RR's, but boy is the rhetoric different. He has really obscured whatever point he his trying to make by his demeaning, hostile style.
um... who are you referring to?
Hopefully me.  I'm campaigning to get myself voted off as a troll--one way to cure the addiction.
Ah..no as an "oil troll" you get stuck in the tarsands or is that tarzans I can't remember..
Sorry, I was thinking of Hothgar following the preceeding line of comments.

I'm certainly not ready to let westexas (no, it's not you) go so easily.
