Yes - I don't understand the yield curve either. And I'm by no means certain at this point of the issue of the post peak era being inflationary - I need to work a lot harder on it (so much to research, so little time...)
Try Conquer the Crash by Robert R Prechter, or The Dollar Crisis by Richard Duncan (not the same Richard Duncan associated with Olduvai theory). Both explain the deflation angle, but from different perspectives.
