Quote from: RE on Jun 22, 2024, 09:56 AMHow perceptive. Of course, the really perceptive knew it 20 years ago before the 2006 cliff event happened, but undoubtedly they were stoned and banned as quickly as they revealed the difference in understanding from experts versus the run of the mill internet denizens just looking for an excuse to buy a hunting cabin to ride out the 2006 collapse.
Obviously, Richard was off on his timeline since we're closer to the top of that hill than the bottom, where he had us by 2025.

Sort of like....shifting peak oil graphs to pretend they happened as predicted decades ago?
So is this a Jedi mind trick that both of you are doing now? Or just cohesion in the Pied Piper routine, hoping that at least one new lemming will show up to tag along towards the oft cited, but not yet found cliff?
Personal doom before societal Doom RE, I'd make you a decent bet on it, as it is a certainty with you. Unfortunately, you have no means of paying up in your current circumstances. And K-Dog is so sensitive to keeping his arms tightly wrapped around what he has got for fear of losing it in this collapsing/not collapsing/ DAMN do I like my housing equity situation that he probably won't risk anything.
But I as a parent can leave a will for the kids requiring a payoff. Versus those who can only pretend they understand parenting I suppose.
I note for the record that not once has the perspective between breeders (certifiable experts or otherwise), and non-breeders, been discussed.
Because old non-parenting doomers sit on one side of that equation? A correlation perhaps between those who need to change graphs to pretend something happened that didn't, as opposed to those of us who have a future stake in the outcome through our very genetics?
