I just noticed that they actually linked a number of peak oil blogs, including peakoil.com. But not TOD (alas!).

Nonetheless, I would hope the TOD webmasters are gearing up more tech equipment to handle a big increase in membership.  Maybe a beginner's section to help bring the flood of newbies up to speed on info, past discussion threads, netiquette, lurking recommendations-- so we don't spend alot of time 'reinventing the wheel'.  If you build it--they will come!  TOD is too good to remain unfound for long.

Bob,

I'm actually gearing down my tech equipment in light of Deffeye's "stone age by 2025" prediction.  I've been practicing using chalk to draw hubbert curves on the sidewalk in front of my apartment in preparation for the time when I do my site updates on the wall of a cave.

Best,

Matt

Hey Matt,

Don't forget fire by friction, chipping flint into spearpoints, small animals snares, berry wine, and bark canoes.

Hoo, boy.  Should be interesting to see how the PeakOil.com servers hold up.
