Hehe yeah these guys lightbulbs are just starting to glimmer. Was fun to watch their discomfort. Simmons was just waltzing through with a SLEDGEHAMMER the good old lead to gold, 20c a cup, giving it away in the 20th century, running out of resources by 2050 - 2070 and associated 9 billion people.

Beautiful to watch this runaway train. Like the Hindenberg exploding or the tail of the Titanic getting swallowed by the atlantic.

1) Limits of growith 1972

2) Carters "Crisis of Confidence" Speech" 1979

Oh, they've been warned far more than three times. Admiral Rickover in the 1950s, Hubbert's work in the 1940s through the 1980s, plus many many more.
