James Howard Kunstler, that is.

I have recently read "The Geography of Nowhere", "Home from Nowhere", and am working on "The City in Mind". He also shows up in the documentary "The End of Suburbia".

A lot of the points he makes seem very correct (For instance, cheap petroleum will not last forever, that is a given, and this will have massive negative effects on our economy).

"Home from Nowhere" is especially fantastic, I think. The stuff early on discussing inner-city crime and such is very good.

He's not very inhibited, is he?

His stuff is great, and he doesn't really fuss around taking the long route to saying what he means.
