I would like to thank you for visiting my blog. For me you are a very important person. I have just looked at the statistics for the blog and in January there were 5,424 of you as unique visitors that visited my blog more than 4 times during that month. During the summer month of July activity went down to 3,736 visitors, but during August it went up to 4,634 visitors that on average visited the blog 3 times. During the last month 55% of the visitors were from Sweden and the rest from 92 other countries. Around 13% of the visitors had an USA flag. The following countries contributed between 321 and 150 visitors; United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Norway, Germany, Finland, Netherlands, Italy, France.
Without the translation of my blog from Swedish to English by Michael Lardelli I would never had been as successful as I am outside Sweden. Thank you Michael!!!
I think that we will have a very interesting autumn when I will be in Texas. You are all welcome to follow my blog. Once again thank you for reading.

Hi from Adelaide Kjell, Just wanted to thank you for maintaining this scientifically-based commentary on energy flows in the modern world and to support your vote of thanks to M Lardelli for his translating efforts. I’d be very interested to hear of your frank assessment of the oil fracking industry in the USA and how it’s all ‘panning out’.
Thanks,
S Powrie.

Dear Kjell,
your blog has been a very valuable source of interesting news and information, so many thanks to you (and Michael, since my Swedish is more than a little bit rusty at the moment). The conversations have maybe been few, but that is perhaps due to the nature of the blog-posts; they are not just opinions but well-sourced insights. I have found myself nodding many times, and as an active blogger and author I know that somehow it would be nice to actually let you know that I agree and appreciate your work very much.
Have an interesting and nice trip to Texas.
Kind regards,
Rauli Partanen

Dear Kjell
I have been following the work of you and Colin Campbell since the end of the 90’s. Can’t remember which I read first, abook entitled “The last of Ancient Sunlight”, or Colin Campbell and Jean Laherrere’s article in Scientific American. Either way, it got my attention. Since then, ASPO and your blog has been a valuable source of information, and I have pointed numerous people to it as I tried to raise awareness and foster dialogue around Peak Oil. (Sadly, I see that the website of the South African chapter of ASPO is not updated anymore). If it wasn’t so serious, the whole Peak Oil issue would have been quite humorous, as the ostrich keep taking it’s head out of the sand to scan for any improvements, just to poke it back in again. Oh, and did I forget that the ostrich would now and again use it’s heads-up moments to tell all that would listen that there is nothing to worry about, even as it’s behind is being scorched by the sun (i.e. high energy prices….) Thank you for the good work that you and your team do…I am convinced future generations will be more appreciative than the present.
Regards
Daniel

Thankyou Kjell and Michael, I’ve been following ASPO for a few years now and just finished reading “Peeking at Peak Oil”. I have just launched a website http://www.ourfuturenow.ca. I use information from the book and encourage people to read it.

Thank you so much for the blog and all the effort being put into educating people about fossil fuels and resource depletion. Its a key issue that is at the root of most of the conflict going on in the world right now. Those who can grab power (governmental or military) can control the resources, and the money that goes along with them. There are multiple major power-grabs going on, and the world will continue to fight over every last ounce of fuels (coal, LNG, oil, etc)… its really a sad scenario playing out. But that is the price of dependence and greed. We all need to prepare ourselves and become more self-reliant, more cognizant of our levels of dependence on oil and gas and do our best to remember that for generations, life went on prior to the age of fossil fuels. We must re-educate ourselves, look for ways to reduce our energy needs, and discover how to harness new energies that are under local control and hopefully free. As Richard Heinberg says, “The Party’s Over.” The days of easy and cheap are no longer. As an “intelligent” species, we must ask ourselves, “How far do we go to maintain this illusion?”
