| Oh, and there's one more little contributing factor that I'm sure the author The Methanol Effect. I wonder how many people this craze will end up killing or making their lives all that much more miserable until genetic engineering comes up with a fuel-producing bacteria that saves the day.

| #17 CHIN MIL FORUM Poster's GLOBAL WARMING THEORY > US, other World Govts realize from SOHO, etal. satellites that SOLAR ACTIVITY will plunge northern latitudes into ice ages and render same uninhabitable - simul, ice ages will likely push arable farmlands further south + destabilize major northern Latitude nations including both USA + Russia-China. REGIONAL-GLOBAL WARS INCLUDING MUTUALLY DESTRUCTIVE NUKE WAR MAY OCCUR AS NATIONS + ETHNIC GROUPS DESPERATELY FIGHT FOR EXISTENCE + RELEVANCE. WARMING > Poster argues and believes that US-World Govts are covertly planning, colluding, and preparing their nations for a certain future time when the present World Order + Human Civilization will face major or catastrophic disruptions/changes of epic scale, to include prepping alternative scenarios where Milyuhns = Scores/Hundreds of Milyuhns may have to be wilfully suddenly sacrificed = allowed to die as due to the future OWG-NWO's inability to feed and support everyone vv ice ages + earth changes. *SCIENCE DAILY > FISH ARE SWIMMING NORTH AS OCEANS WARM. |

| #16 A friend of mine owns a large share of a group of grain elevators throughout the midwest. They're always full, because the US produces more grain than we can use OR export. We have about a three-year supply of wheat and a two-year supply of corn in elevators, just waiting to rot. We produce more of just about everything than we can use, with the surplus being pushed on welfare recipients, foreign nations, and anybody else we can sell or give it to. Yet two-thirds of US farmland is not in production. The Useless Nitwits know this, but they've got to have some way to "shame the Americans" into forking over more money so "people will like us". It's better to be feared than to be treated with contempt. Two-thirds of the world treats us with contempt. They need to learn to either treat us as equals, or to fear us. They choice is theirs. |

| #14 SCIENCEDAILY > 37 NATIONS FACE FOOD CRISES. Ironically, the major causes for same as indic in the article and as as per the UNO, e.g. CORN-BASED ALTERN/BIO FUELS, are THOSE AGENDUMS/ ISSUES FAVORED BY THE ENVIRON MOVEMENT - you know, the Meat-centric, anti-Veggie/Vegan, Fascist profit-manic Big Corporations, Global Capitalist Profiteers, etc.??? |

| #13 Redneck Jim, you are partially right but Zimbabwae's neighbors also depend on Zimb-food. They may not die as they have other sources and less crazy leaders so the numbers will still be off-kilter. |

| #12 look for an "Adjustment" next year when the population falls in Zimbobwe from starvation, and the figures (Food/people) agree again. |

| #11 I'm going to hop in my car and go get a steak before the Democrats forever surrender us to this looney-tunes world government. Second the motion, Outback sounds good. Seriously, they don't realise that "Making everyone "Equal", doesn't mean raising the poverty stricken, it means a huge fall in all people's standrds of living, (Except the poverty stricken South Africans living in mud huts) Useless Nothing indeed. |

| #10 We're always doomed. The only thing that changes is why. When seems to change regularly too. |

| #9 We will trade you one barrel of Middle east oil for one bushel of corn. The production costs are similar. |

| #8 rj, I was wondering about that. No one in the media has taken note that Zimbob went completely off-line. |
| Posted by: Seafarious 2007-12-18 13:07 |
| #7 Zimbob alone probably accounts for a huge part of the problem. You can't turn Africa's breadbasket into a basketcase without really screwing up the numbers. Perhaps Global Warming will increase the amount of arable land so we can get out of this. Perhaps Global Warming will raise the sea-level and put the Arabian Penninsula underwater. Only Global Warming can save us. All hail global warming! |

| #6 "World wheat stores declined 11 percent this year, to the lowest level since 1980." So things are as bad as 1980! The horror! "To make matters worse, high oil prices have doubled shipping costs in the past year" Has the average price for ship fuel doubled in the past year? My heating oil and gasoline costs haven't. "what's most important to us is that it's a long-term trend" Based on 40 percent last year and 9 the year before. Yeah, that's long term. " 'unusual weather events,' linked to climate change - such as droughts, floods and storms" Kinda makes ya long for those good ole dust bowl days, dudn't it. We need to give the U.N. a gift -- I'm thinking a huge statue of a hysterical lady for the main entrance. "Give us your doomsayers, your idiots, your huddled asses, yearning to bray. Seriously, they're letting ZimBob and Dear Leader run wild while their people starve -- and it's our fault? Our genetically-engineered corn is acceptable to us but they won't buy it -- and it's our fault? They're not willing to thwart Iran's military ambitions -- and oil prices are our fault? They want to give China and India a pass on greenhouse gases -- and their delusions of man-made climate change will be our fault? I'm going to hop in my car and go get a steak before the Democrats forever surrender us to this looney-tunes world government. |

| #4 Money. If we give them lots of money, will we no longer be doomed? At least for today... |
