Straight Talk with James Howard Kunstler: "The World is Going to Get Rounder and Bigger Again"
This week's Straight Talk contributor is James Howard Kunstler, author and social critic. His better-known works include The Long Emergency, in which he argues that declining oil production will result in the decline of modern industrialized society and compel Americans to return to smaller-scale, localized, semi-agrarian communities; World Made By Hand, and its sequel, The Witch of Hebron, all published by The Atlantic Monthly Press. He writes a weekly blog is also a leading proponent of the movement known as "New Urbanism."
Note: While I do have some issues with where Jimmy is coming from on his own personal level, generally, I'd say he's more accurate than not.
