So what are you doing to avoid being part of the 'Fall' (assuming you don't care to be included)?

Haggling, hell, at the after-Thanksgiving sale at a wallyworld back east, customers trampled a lady when the doors opened, so they could be assured of grabbing a dvd player that was on sale for $30. THAT made me sick to my stomach until I learned that the lady has a history of filing personal injury claims against companies. Geez!

Some very valid points you make Scott. What's the call to action? Maybe you've done your part by raising awareness (i.e. peak oil, I'd never heard of that).
