X-Message-Number: 30423 From: Mark Plus <> Subject: British "fuel poverty" Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2008 15:40:00 -0800 For months now the British media have published stories about the UK's growing "fuel poverty" (their phrase, not mine): http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&tab=wn&ned=us&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22fuel+poverty%22+&btnG=Search It doesn't take much imagination to see how this trend will eventually affect Brits' access to jet travel. "Around 2010 the world will be at a new orbit in history. . . Life expectancy will be indefinite. Disease and disability will nonexist. Death wll be rare and accidental -- but not permanent. We will continuously jettison our obsolescence and grow younger." F.M. Esfandiary, "Up-Wing Priorities" (1981).
