Yes, in Geology 101 at U W Milwaukee in 1986 Professor Paul, an Exxon consultant told us that by 2020, oil would no longer be feasible to take out of the subsurface. By graduation time, geologists were hired but the hiring reps were making it clear they would take all seismologists. By the time I graduated with a masters, really looking for only seismologists, testimony to the fact that getting to the oil was getting deeper and deeper thus requiring seismic waves and not the good old fashioned Beverly Hill Billy stories.

Introduction, even though I have been lurking for awhile. I am a crazy ol' hippie woman living with MS and learning that I can still contribute even though I have a MonSter of my very own. I garden, make recycled stuff, and enjoy life. Many decades ago I was introduced to the concept that trees will clean the planet. (At the time I lived within walking distance of 1 steel mill, 1 glass mill, and 3 refineries) Cleaning the world was a good thing in my book. I still feel that way.

I am the Founder of Future Dawning Enterprises, and have been a fan of Peak Moment for many years now -- ever since the beginning. Very much appreciate the work that both Janaia and Robyn do to keep graphic information flowing that conveys the information much better than does text alone. It makes my work much easier when i can get a video i need from a reliable source and present it to the ever-growing numbers of people who are joining FDE both as individuals and groups.

It is the mission of FDE to bring together a minimum of one million of the most creative people we can find worldwide to address the unprecedented in past recorded history challenges the human family faces today. When these people come aboard FDE, we will ask them to create a Community Learning & Information Center in the community in which they reside at ground level. FDE will be linking to the Transition Headquarters in each state across the U.S. and around the world. Then we will be asking other approved organizations such as that set up by Bob Ballard "The Hearts of Fire Project" to address homelessness to join with us in creating these CLICs so we are addressing all of the needs of the community in an organized manner.

So, please when you encounter a person or group you feel is doing an outstanding job of addressing a cause, or creating a project, or? please refer them to us as a potential member for the FDE Virtual Learning Center and Think Tank.

FDE itself is also setting up an initiative to bring about prison reform in all 48 states and in any other country that would like to join in our program.

A main focus of FDE is to evolve human consciousness through education and through the creation of sustainable living communities.

Another focus is to unite the larger movements, e.g. human consciousness, creating sustainable living communities, evolving human rights and and creating social justice; evolving the women's and indigenous people's movement so that we are speaking with one voice.

We are also concerned with evolving our social systems including government and our monetary system so they are life-enhancing and working for us.

We are closely aligned with The International Academy of Holodynamics founded by V. Vernon Woolf, Ph.D. Dr. Woolf was the person most instrumental in transforming the former U.S.S.R., taking that country from Communism to "perestroika" after being invited to that country to do so by the Institute of Natural Science there. This is the first time a country has ever been transformed by peaceful means.

We are also working closely with cellular biologist, Dr. Bruce H. Lipton, author of "The Biology of Belief - How Thoughts Control Life," and "Spontaneous Evolution - Our Positive Future & A Way To Get There From Here," written with Steve Bhaerman. Dr. Lipton is also the recipient of the 2009 GOI Peace Award for his research in the field of Epi-genetics and is an internationally-recognized speaker.

We hold in very high esteem, Thomas H. Greco, author of "The End of Money & The Future of Civilization," and value his input to our organization.
