Nate,
Did you hear Kunstler speak? I would like to hear your impressions and comments, if so.
I talked to him before his speech last year but that was the day I had 400 miles to go to South Dakota so I skipped his talk - I had heard him 3 times before however, and each time was a completely different speech (though he did mention that we have a rail system that the Bulgarians would be ashamed of on all 3 occasions.)
Jim is a friend of mine. I think he has a better command of the English language than anyone I know and is a brilliant man in many ways (not in price/timing forecasts of DJIA levels...;) Like the rest of us he doesnt hold a crystal ball on what/when is going to happen, but he has a wide angle lens and 'gets it'.
Nate
Perhaps some don't realize; Kunstler was a celebrity FIRST, for years. I heard him speak on surburbia in the mid 90's.
He IS briliant and those of us with literary ( as opposed to scientific) backgrounds GREATLY appreciate what he brings to the discussion.
