It sounds like many of his themes are similar to the ones I wrote about years ago, and like him, I don't believe in the Mad  Max "all-chaos, all the time" scenario.  It would sure enhance my marketability if I did, though! :-)</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3865412357716508981/3194999342710019350/comments/default/3985417321426231578'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3865412357716508981/3194999342710019350/comments/default/3985417321426231578'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.ampino.com/2007/12/about-my-dystopian-fiction.html?showComment=1206218901926#c3985417321426231578' title=''/><author><name>bunnygirl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04938134750150653386</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11353863172600745168'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.ampino.com/2007/12/about-my-dystopian-fiction.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3865412357716508981.post-3194999342710019350' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3865412357716508981/posts/default/3194999342710019350' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3865412357716508981.post-2082553522427925731</id><published>2008-03-22T14:46:01.140-05:00</published><updated>2008-03-22T14:46:01.140-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I have been reading your comments for some time at...</title><content type='html'>I have been reading your comments for some time at my own blog, iUBR, and POD People. I just saw your glowing review by Shannon, and it looks like you deserved it. Do you follow James Howard Kunstler's blog? If not, you should check out kunstler.com. As an author, he is the man on the scene with peak oil. Like you, I am a Texan, and some of his rants against suburbia are a little off the deep end, but I always like to read what he has to say.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3865412357716508981/3194999342710019350/comments/default/2082553522427925731'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3865412357716508981/3194999342710019350/comments/default/2082553522427925731'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.ampino.com/2007/12/about-my-dystopian-fiction.html?showComment=1206215161140#c2082553522427925731' title=''/><author><name>Floyd M.
