Bees, Oil, the death of Man

Ah, ok, a dismal title.

Since a few months ago, I have slowly but surely been reading an advance copy of a book called Apocalypse. It's a collection of short stories about life in a post-apocalyptic landscape. Some of the contributing authors include Cory Doctorow (of BoingBoing status) and Stephen King (who probably needs no introduction).

As a result, I've been thinking lots about the end of the world (an oxymoron in that most scenarios entail the human race continuing to live on, albeit in a more limited context). So, I thought I'd share this link that concisely lays out several end-of-life-as-we-know-it scenarios and some possible personal solutions (the solution to any of them being "bend over and kiss your ass goodbye."

Balee-dat.
