GAIA Host Collective
Hmm can you elaborate a bit? A translation of GAO for example? Ive worked a day here in Europe and my brain is a bit slow to figure it out?
Tha nks
The "Switchgrass is cool, dude" article I posted above mentions it, and also includes a link to a Platt's story about it (provided by Bart in yesterday's DrumBeat).
I am not as excited as Cynus. Peak oil is now...but it's carefully phrased as peak conventional oil.
And here's EB's take on it:

They include links to previous discussions of the GAO report.
Oh, and this link explains what the GAO is.
GAO stands for the Government Accountability Office. Until recently, it was known as the General Accounting Office. It is the investigative branch of the U.S. Congress.
Your Government is accountable?
To Who?
Now, now. Tony doesn't want twats like you suggesting the US Government is any way less accountable than his very own.
Please, think of the special relationship! Good God man, are you suggesting any thing sordid? :)
Mudlogger, are you an owl? :-)
I know this is pedantic but it should be 'to whom?'
