While agree with you guys that Yergin made some foolish predictions, you guys should at least be fair and recognize that TOD patron saint JHK is an equally awful procrastinator:
http://peakoildebunked.blogspot.com/2007/12/325-jim-kunstler-worlds-shit...
FYI, the stock market is still at 3 kunstlers :P
On the other hand, Kunstler has admitted that he was wrong and has seemed to have learned his lesson.
Luckily for our future amusement, there is no indication that Yergin has learned his. I look forward to his upcoming forecasts!
Procrastinator? Er, did you mean prognosticator?
ha, indeed, this hangover is not treating me well today. No more cheap vodka for this guy!
Only drink the good stuff. Today on Zorba Paster's “On Your Health” show on NPR he affirmed that premium vodka has less chance of giving you a hangover because of less esters. I prefer Chopin vodka because I am slightly intolerant of gluten - it's made from potatoes.
Try THIS.
Good stuff.
Ooooooo! That looks mighty good. I'll have to find a place to order some online. I'm in the outback and it is unlikely I could fins some in a reasonable driving distance. Possibly the only thing I miss about Chicago apart from the food is that I can get anything (Sam's liquors would definitely have it).
Depends where you are, might not be inexpensive but these fellows can help you.
They are owned by AJ's and they always have it.
You can always tell the SO or write it off as ethanol research. And maybe even score green points.
