Sex and Peak oil - a mixed message

[drbubb]

Here's a Webvidsite from Kris Can, who delivers a strange "Public Service Message"

I heard about this message on : #14: http://media.libsyn.com/media/kunstlercast...tlerCast_14.mp3

 

"A listener caller asks JamesHoward Kunstler for advice on how to talk to people about peak oil, the point at which our demand for oil will probably exceed the global supply. Kris, the caller, has a webshow about peak oil at KrisCan.com. In order to help with her message, Jim watches her public service announcement. During the video, she warns viewers about the impending oil crisis while writhing on the ground, naked, behind two gas cans. Jim has trouble concentrating on the "message." But he likes Kris."

JHK was also on the Colbert show : http://www.kriscan.com/archives/39

 

He said it was not an altogether positive experience, and he had to take "two cans of red bull to get through it."

 

He says, that is how America now treats a serious message, "It holds it up from Ridicule."

This is excellent.

 

On the right of the same page is a YouTube video where she explains Hubbert's peak.

 

I'd never heard of Kris Can but it seems her whole site is about peak oil.

 

On this page she sings the Peak Oil Song.

Is this message serious enough?

I've discovered that Kris Can also uses the screenname oilycassandra.

 

Her video below at YouTube has been viewed over 112 000 times since 23 December. That's pretty good going. Maybe a few thousand people will look into the matter further.

 

Her stuff is fun and this is one effective way to reach many people who might have remained oblivious.

 

Here's the video:

I liked her Peak Oil song:

Maybe I should offer her some GEI content for her website

 

KrisCan is not the same person as OilyCassandra (different nose)

 

But she does have her own stuff on YouTube,

including a response to JHK's comments

She admits to have an "impressive rack"

Kris Can got her man - she bagged him for 5 interviews

From part 2:

"I think we'll be in pretty serious shit in five years...

We are getting pretty close to supply problems with gasoline... not refining enough."

 

"10 billion barrels in Brazil. But the world uses 30 billion barrels in a year.

...

 

In the middle of part 3, he talks about why the skyscraper is doomed:

+ A 20th century, fossil-fuel concept

+ People havent looked at all the costs properly

+ Have to bring in the food, and energy - people, everything needs to be brought in
