OMG IS THAT IVER! Art teacher of some sort from Maine, and he who ran for state office and got beat by a cornucopian?   He was one of those "better decades too early than waiting for the real thing" peak oil types. WHe even made a peak oil movie...titled "Peak Oil: A love story" or something like that. 

Simon is better known, when he was pimping David Hughes way back when it was pretty funny. I'd be fired or stoned for using bad internet references like that. His work quality within his own specialty seems reasonable. For a 9/11 conpiracy enthusiast anyway.

That's the one! He put it out before his wife died I think, and before he ran for State office. I offered to interview him once, if he promised not to out me on some of his peak-oil fanboi adventures. He sells art during the summer before you go out to the island, he's got a place there near an ex-boss of mine.

I honest arguer, I always liked him. To him peak oil was one of those mechanism things to cause folks to live simpler and better, he wasn't a true knight in the cause.
