IEA Whistleblowers

gaius marius has a 10 November 2009 post at his Decline and Fall of Western Civilization about a recent international energy agency report about oil reserves and a whistleblower who claims the report was doctored to suit american interests. Here's a link: http://declineandfallofwesterncivilization.blogspot.com/2009/11/iea-accused-of-masking-peak-oil.html. Again: trust no government statistic.

I was listening to public radio and heard the story about the baby crib recalls.

The reporter said that the Consumer Product Safety Commission has reports of child deaths going back years and it was the actions of a family whose child had died in one of these cribs that jumpstarted the recall.

It's really pathetic that the "regulators" spin and don't protect the interests of the people.

Why should we be surprised about petroleum data?
