    So you are assigning value to sheer quantity? John M Greer is a voluminous writer, and as it turns out didn't know bubcuss about peak oil. Philosophical ramblings, meh, but when he touched a technical topic..ouch.

Did any of these occupations suddenly find themselves bereft of college grads longing to get into the fields of small business owner, ad execs or timber lobbyists?
