Humanity's cosmic-energy income account consists entirely of our gravity-and star (99 percent Sun)-distributed cosmic dividends of water power, tidal power, wave power, wind power, vegetation-produced alcohols, methane gas, vulcanism, and so on. Humanity's present rate of total energy consumption amounts to only one four-millionth of one percent of the rate of its energy income.
...Ninety-nine percent of humanity does not know that we have the option to "make it" economically on this planet and in the Universe. We do.”

That is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Fuller and design science. his whole philosophy resonated with the over abundance which we can now enjoy. He mathematically worked out the potential of 40 billion humans living well on the planet, none in want.

The Fake Oil Crisis of 1973
http://questionsquestions.net/docs04/peakoil1.html Some "peak oil" writers have opined that the crisis of 1972-73 was a kind of "rehearsal" for what is supposedly in our very near future. It is startling to consider, in light of this, the evidence that that crisis was likely a completely contrived affair.
In "A Century of War -- Anglo American Oil Politics and the New World Order" (1992), petroleum industry expert and economist F. William Engdahl presents evidence that the 1973 OPEC "oil shock" and the accompanying oil "shortage" were secretly planned by the highest levels of the US and British elites, with Henry Kissinger playing a key role:
http://earth.prohosting.com/~jswift/engdahl.html A concise summary of the entire book can be found here:
http://how-the-world-really-work...ctor.com/a-century-o... Corroboration of Engdahl's account was provided a few years agb by Sheikh Ahmed Zaki Yamani, who was Saudi Arabia's OPEC minister at the time:
'I am 100 per cent sure that the Americans were behind the increase in the price of oil. The oil companies were in in real trouble at that time, they had borrowed a lot of money and they needed a high oil price to save them.'
He says he was convinced of this by the attitude of the Shah of Iran, who in one crucial day in 1974 moved from the Saudi view, that a hike would be dangerous to Opec because it would alienate the US, to advocating higher prices.
'King Faisal sent me to the Shah of Iran, who said: "Why are you against the increase in the price of oil? That is what they want? Ask Henry Kissinger - he is the one who wants a higher price".'
Yamani contends that proof of his long-held belief has recently emerged in the minutes of a secret meeting on a Swedish island, where UK and US officials determined to orchestrate a 400 per cent increase in the oil price.

Why don't some of these 'naysayers' SEE that we are trying to HELP them and a more healthy, creative climate for us to learn and live in
by spreading truths.
to live in an outdated paradigm and maybe not realize it and have sunk costs in crusty conventional thinking is so simple, stubborn, stiflin' and stupid.
IT IS SO SIMPLE TO JUST CHANGE ONE'S MIND
AND IMPERATIVE WITH ALL THE POPULARITY OF SPREADING irRATIONALITY, VITAL TO REPEL TO PREVENT OUR 'HOME' FROM GOING TO...
HELL-IN A-HANDBASKET.
