I thought he deserved to be banned after starting that thread that insinuated that the government faked victims of 9/11 and photshopped pictures of them, shtting all over the victims' families.
Unfortunately Simmons was making some pretty outlandish claims about the oil spill at the end, most of which turned out to be false. A shame that's one of the last things he was part of. RIP Everything was a conspiracy! gets a little tiring. Not too mention few of those 'idiotic threads' you've seen has done something like post up 911 victims pictures for the sake of another tinfoil hat rant.
I came in to post pretty much the same thing. L@@K = desperate craigslist ad, or ebay auction. Back out I go.
Aw man. I spoke to Matt quite a few times - he was a frequent guest on my boss' radio show. RIP Mr. Simmons.....truly a nice guy.
it would certainly be crazy for one to drown in their own pool. everyone knows when you build your own pool, you automatically develop gills which allows you to breathe underwater, but IN YOUR POOL ONLY. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T GO AROUND SWIMMING IN OTHER PEOPLE'S POOLS THINKING YOUR NEWLY FORMED GILLS WILL WORK IN POOLS BESIDES YOUR OWN!!!
today is August 10th. OP has made 13 threads this month alone. Of the last 25 threads, the last one is dated July 18th. Of the last 50 threads, the last one is dated June 23rd. if they are not straight copy/pasted from abovetopsecret, they are seeminglessly helpless pleas to help set up cable/dish services or some rant how he can't properly deal with a billing issue or a customer service issue on his own. that or they are duplicate threads, posted in the wrong forum, or just plain false information being passed around and aggregated here like it is his personal blog page. oh lets not forget when he pushes GameStop threads on us. Where does the OP work again?
LISTEN "MAD" "MAX"! THIS TIME IT'S ****ING DIFFERENT! L@@K!!! Oil price wager In August 2005, Simmons bet John Tierney and Rita Simon, the widow of Julian Simon, $2500 each that the price of oil averaged over the entire calendar year of 2010 would be at least $200 per barrel (in 2005 dollars). This wager was dubbed "The Simmons-Tierney Bet." [5] It currently appears highly unlikely that Simmons would have won this bet. A factor in this, however, was that the world-wide economic collapse created demand destruction that greatly decreased the demand for oil and thus reduced prices. This supports the criticism that Simmons theories did not take into account economic effects enough. However, his theories about the difficulties in increasing (or maintaining) production levels have not yet been disproved HE WAS GOING TO LOSE......AND NOW........... HE'S DEAD!!!!
I suppose the implication is supposed to be that some person or corporation who makes their money on fossil fuels killed him to stop renewalable energy from becoming a reality? If so, please note that his death will have no discernible effect on the march of renewable energy technology. Really, none at all.
