Fletch-

I agree with you on the "where it falls" concept of clean water. Reminds me of a situation awhile back when some southernish states wanted to run a pipeline to the Great Lakes (Lake Michigan in particular, I think) to get fresh water. Those of us near the Great Lakes wouldn't hear of it and the pipe was never built.

After easy access to fresh water, I think the next thing that we'll fight over will be livable land. When sea levels rise, most of Bangladesh will be underwater. These people will then flee to Burma and India, two countries that won't be able to handle the influx. It will happen all over the world in the low lying areas. Quite possibly most of Canada will become livable when temperatures rise, the ice melts, and currents change.

Psssst, most of Canada is already livable. Pass it on.

It's my understanding that many areas drop well below freezing in the winter, I think thats what Sass was talking about.

More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!

Hey Citizen. Did you post this before or after you responded to me in the other thread. I will have to do some checking.

I responded, mostly tounge in cheek, because of the perception that Canada is a frozen wasteland where we all huddle together in igloos.

To me livable means able to sustain life. I have heard that there is all manner of life in the frozen north.

Perhaps Sass was talking about ability to support agriculture. But I would never be so bold as to assume what someone else was talking about.

After.

I have a completely different view. When I first started learning about Canada in geography so many years ago I found it hard to believe that some places got below -20c and there were public cold warnings. And they have actual cities here? I thought.

There's also all sorts of life around deep ocean thermal vents

Whenever you read someone else’s text, or listen to what they have to say you are doing exactly what you say you'd never be so bold to do.

So all we have to do is grow gills now right?

I was refering to the Inuit who seem to do quite well up North.

But they can't survive without technology and careful culture based rituals. With the appropriate technology people can survive.

You said you'd never be so bold as to assume what someone else is talking about but by merely interpreting what someone else is saying, which is part of the normal process of reading, this is exactly what you are doing

well, if you just want an opinion:

i think the oil prices are intentionally being manipulated by the elite. oil, like a tax, can be used to regulate expansion and growth, and it is used on us, by the powers that be. its obviously not a "liberal" or "conservative" issue, its a matter of an elect group that both those parties are feeding off the tit of.

i dont know if anyone caught coast to coast last night, but Alex Jones was a guest, he was in Canada covering the Bilderberg "conference", which consists of 125-150 of thee most prominant and rich people in the world. it is widely speculated that this is the true shadow government, beyond national governments, that decides world policy, and to me(personally)this is the current source of the occult NWO conspiracy(but i wont dwell too much on that..).

well heres Alexs story, http://prisonplanet.com/articles/june2006/090606bilderbergmafia.htm i guess he was literally terrorised at customs, it appears the Bilderbergs flagged certain names in anticipation for the media coverage. understand, these meetings are held under a "media blackout", invitation only, with actual orders to "shoot to kill" if neccessary. this is the real world government, where the elite decide what they want to do to us next. if the media cant know, then we arent supposed to know..the implications are pretty blunt. well this current meeting is being documented thoroughly in the canadian press right now.

its been said that Clinton, Bush, Kerry, the Canadian prime minister, etc were all in attendance at Bilderberg meetings prior to their candidacy, before they were "elected", which is a bold claim, but incredible if its true....

so i googled the details, and sure enough, the circumstantial, and anecdotel evidence is there..and you can actually use their own words against them a lot of the time. i think this is the bigger issue, beyond our slavery to oil and our blindness of partisan rhetoric. how do we know their really is a shortage, without knowing if prices and productin are intentionally being manipulated?

here are a couple links i grabbed, but you'all can investigate for yourselves; just understand this is really happening, regardless of how much you choose to read into

"It would have been quite impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries ..."

"Will Hutton, the British economist and a former Bilderberg delegate.." consensus established is the backdrop against which policy is made worldwide".
"One of the first places I heard about the determination of US forces to attack Iraq was from leaks that came out of the 2002 Bilderberg meeting," says Mr Gosling. "

I think it will be over Spice!

No, I think it will be Water (which maybe could also follow in a Dune story arc or maybe Tank Girl, hmmm.)
We will fight over it, and try to contain it because we will treat it like a possession, not like the gift of the Earth.
Once it is contained, we'll be too busy fighting over who it belongs to to notice the plants and trees are dying. Then without the trees to keep the air clean, we will begin to fight over clean air.

Well, maybe any air will do, as we all gasp like fish out of water.
