Barry Silverthorn the producer/editor “The End of Suburbia: Oil Depletion and The Collapse of The American Dream” writes:

Recently I received an email from someone who wanted to send copies of The End of Suburbia to active-duty US military personnel. In response to this request, I’ve created a program to supply these DVDs at reduced cost to anyone who wants to donate one to an active soldier.

For only $8, I will mail a DVD and postcard out on you behalf. All you have to do is supply me with the address of the person you want it sent to.

I think that soldiers deserve to know what they are fighting for.

Welcome to the new Resillience commenting system!

We have moved from the former Disqus commenting system to a new system as of September 10, 2026.

  • Your past comments have not disappeared.
  • You can log in with your old Disqus credentials, as well as Gmail credentials or a Resilience account (formerly Resilience+). Login with Facebook and other credentials is coming soon.

We made this change because of privacy concerns regarding Disqus. It's also part of a set of changes to bring more services to the Resilience community under a single login: commenting, (coming September 2026), and online courses (coming 2027). Unfortunately, your old Disqus comments may not reliably link to your account in this new system. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
