by Liam Scheff What we don’t understand (because we don’t see the road leading from antiquity to the present) is that what we call “Scientists” are actually priests to the god of petroleum. Everything we do, eat, touch, see, taste, have, wear, share and think we love is made of, covered by, sprayed with, machined […]
by Liam Scheff This week, the Yakuza and debt-asylum otherwise known as TEPCO has begun, in full force, its destruction of the world, via an increasingly dangerous and heavy radiological spill and run-off in coastal Japan (which is attached to every other Pacific coast by virtue of the salty pond between America, Hawaii, China and […]
by Liam Scheff Proposition: We’re doomed, and we more or less deserve to be. We’ve done ourselves in. Our food, our water, energy, culture – everything about us is reeking of imminent death – or, at least, of strenuous, aching decline. I’ve named the five harbingers of our forthcoming expulsion from Eden 2.0. See if […]
by Liam Scheff Hot Damn! Did you know that there are funny people running round who think that radiation is safe and harmless? Yes, even the nuclear kind. No, really! So, let’s look at data and questions that arise when examining the field of nuclear fission: How many millisieverts per hour can a human being […]
TONIGHT – Ce Soir, Esta Noche on The ENERGY Show! How does the world end? With a bang, or a whimper? Does it COLLAPSE? Or… Contract? We’ll spool out collapse-contraction scenarios, from most to least probable, and least to most hopeful… Listen and Download. I’ll read your contributions on the Chat Room Page. And take […]
by Liam Scheff It’s the theme song of today, boys and girls. It’s… GOOD TIMES. What’s happening out there? No nuclear emergency YET - but Pennsylvania wants YOU to know that it cares: “The Department of Health will provide free potassium iodide tablets Thursday, Aug. 8, to Pennsylvanians who live, work or attend school within […]
by Liam Scheff Event: Fukushima is the Only Story Today Location: Your Town. Goal: To convince world governments that NOW is the time (now is far past time) to deal with Fukushima as an international event. Everyone in the world has a stake in trying to fix this disaster. We’re not doing it. We’re waiting […]
This is Not Free Energy by Liam Scheff Liam, you pessimist! You don’t believe in free energy? Well, no. No, I don’t. I’d be very cautious about wishing for such a thing, given how human beings use the expensive energy we have now. Don’t get me wrong, I embrace the search for new energy sources […]
by Liam Scheff Do you ever wake up, look at ‘las noticias,’ and realize: “Yeah, this civilization is cooked. Die-off ahoy!” In Brazil: “More than 80 tons of fish suffocated in the Rio de Janeiro lagoon that will be used for Olympic rowing events in 2016, causing an ecological and olfactory nightmare in the Brazilian […]
by Liam Scheff Q: Is 460 a troubling number? How about “460 tons?” A: Tons of what? Cheese doodles? No. French fries? No. Unspent nuclear fuel sitting on the 3rd and 4th floor of a shaking building already damaged by tsunami-earthquake trauma? Why, yes. That 460 IS a troubling number. Four-Hundred-Sixty tons. (Metric? Short?) if […]
Greetings fellow prisoners servants of her Majesty, the Fed and all ships at sea! It is I, Liam, your humble narrator for this jaunt on Mr. Oil’s Wild Ride. Do you understand that when I say, “We are going to destroy civilization in the next 30 years,” I’m not intending to be hyperbolic or dramatic. […]
Press Release: A couple of months, no a quadruple couple of months of deeeeep immersion — and I’ve got the title for my new project. It required a sea-change, a complete surrender to the topic – and I’m quite metamorphosed for it. (Because it’s all about energy.) Energy – it’s what the world lives on, […]
by Liam Scheff Newsflash: Fukushima is our slow-burning Extinction Level Event. March 2013: “Like reactor four, reactor three had spent fuel rods sitting inside a cooling pool beneath the twisted steel and rubble. Remotely-operated cranes are being used to try and pull away the debris, but it is a painfully slow process. “”We need to […]
“My Son Will Ride A Camel” – The Magician of Oz, Oil Peaks, Nukes and Fracking the World by Liam Scheff In the past week I have twice been sent a slick advertisement masquerading as a news story – but it’s a press release from an LLC (limited liability corporation) inviting investors to “Frack Australia.” […]
CO2, Green Nukes and Climate Change. Or Not? by Liam Scheff An Open Question “CO2 Friendliness” is used by the nuclear energy industry to sell its very toxic products. “No CO2 emissions!” is the ad line that makes plutonium sound ‘green and good’ to environmentalists. And some well-known environmentalists have taken the bait (calling Steward […]
The Dividing Line by Liam Scheff The Choice Will Be Yours, Mine and Ours. Divided We Stand, United We Fall: Solar, Wind, Oil, Coal, Nuclear. The arguments pile up in disorganized, swaying towers, in colonies and countries of data – kilowatt hours and gigawatt years, energy returns and investments, environmental damage done and reversed, savings […]
How do we get more people to care, with energy and emphasis, about the reality of oil, fracking, and major cultural and economic change? A. We tell them their lifestyle is at risk. B. We tell them their health is at risk. C. We tell them their cost of living is going to triple within […]
by Liam Scheff Will Technology Save Us? Amory Lovins of the Rocky Mountain Institute Says, “Try It!” Rocky Mountain Institute – dreams of banana trees in Arctic Colorado in the middle of winter; of super-efficient houses needed nothing but a few solar panels to be fully-inhabitable year-round in all weather. Cars made of woven carbon, […]
Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors. Say it fast, three times! I have promised friends and listeners that the nuclear energy parade would, despite unimpressive performance in the first half, be back – with some new tricks, moves and even players. And here it is! Nuclear power is again, the “safe! free! eternal energy source” – encore, […]
“How Can You Be Against Fracking?” by Liam Scheff “Fracking will give us energy independence!” goes the drumbeat. But is it true? A sober analysis of what’s really in the rocks comes up with a number much closer to 10 years of fuel – not 20, 50 or the 100 once advertised. [Link] But isn’t […]
by Liam Scheff Fracking is a world-wide disaster – and the press and petrol giants are playing mental footsie with the public to get them to relent. Witness the business press playing at ‘fairness,’ ‘class warfare’ and ‘down with the rich’ all to sell a short-term boondoggle: “The rolling country south of London is called […]
Announcement: There will be no talk of “free energy” on my pages. It’s as fanciful (and based in a position of psychological denial) as “clean coal, clean nuclear and clean fracking.” No denial-based tech here. Post no bills. Reality is: we’re facing the end of the era of cheap, readily-available fossil fuels. That’s where we […]
by Liam Scheff Oil barons and hucksters – read this carefully, and to the end. Headline: US to overtake Saudi as top world ‘oil’ producer. (And China is absolutely fucked). The claim should make you unbuckle your shorts. Saudi Arabia is the world’s leading producer of flowing Texas T. Light sweet crude. The stuff empires […]

February 10, 2013 3The Conspiracy Realist versus Conspiracy Theorists! It’s a hot time on the PsoNick Aitchison show (Type 1 Radio Lounge) out of sunny Brighton, England battling out the Judy Woods concept of 9/11. Liam Scheff isn’t buying it – he’s detailed the 9/11 story in “Official Stories” Ch 4. But the crowd battles back with their […]
This investigation is expanded in Chapters 9 and 10 of “Official Stories” A Story-Telling Species Open a science textbook, and you will be greeted by this notion: “First there was nothing…which exploded, or expanded, and became everything.” This is called “big bang theory.” But it is not a theory. It fails the tests of what […]
What is macrobiotics? How does what you eat help you heal and become more whole? How is psychology affected by diet? These answers and more – considered out loud when John McNair interviews me on his vision-questing show. The musical intro ends a couple minutes in, if you’re impatient. Link
Dear Washington, Please fire yourselves. Or, hire this guy, and me too. I’ll show you where to cut spending. (NIH, Iraqifornia, CDC, ADM, Monsanto, KBR, Halliburton, “Made in Chinexico-Malaysindia”, NAFTA, etc, et al, and more). Ron Paul Issues Statement on S&P Downgrading of U.S. Credit Rating – “Washington must take heed, and act to […]

July 28, 2011 1Stars and planets are born electrically. Lightning is the electrical equalization of the planet with space, not ‘ice crystals rubbing together in clouds.’ And life itself is an electrical, field-directed event, not a gene-determined, reductionist dead end… Liam Scheff and Robert Scott Bell talk about the paradigm-cracking new science of Electro-Biology – electricity shaping the […]
It’s June, not April, so pinch your nose and pray this is a joke: Somehow this feels like a Vonnegut plotline: population boom equals food shortage. Solution? Synthesize food from human waste matter. Absurd yes, but Japanese scientists have actually discovered a way to create edible steaks from human feces. Mitsuyuki Ikeda, a researcher from […]
Heartfelt, heartbreaking plea from a French national working and living in or near Tokyo, Japan, with his wife and family…
