When I was in college in the early 1970's there was much wringing of hands over excess
population and the impending Ice Age!

And we'd be out of oil before 2000.

I wish someone like John Stoessl would just do a one hour special and "name names"
of all the tenured poobahs who made these doomsday pronouncements and still
got to keep their jobs.

I guess what really p-sses me off is that they were allowed to keep their teaching
jobs and indoctrinate later generations with the same clap-trap.

Hey, let's not leave out our ol' pal Y2K. We better all buy those generators that run on re-cycled sewage because it will be until mid 2001 at least, before we have heat and electricity again. (Those of us that live in rural areas, that is -- cities will all be abandoned to roving gangs of wolves)
