A Crude Awakening
|
|
Produced and directed by award-winning European journalists and filmmakers Basil Gelpke and Ray McCormack, A Crude Awakening tells the story of how our civilization’s addiction to oil puts it on a collision course with geology. Compelling, intelligent, and highly entertaining, the film visits with the world’s top experts and comes to a startling, but logical conclusion – our industrial society, built on cheap and readily available oil, must be completely re-imagined and overhauled.

In Memoriam: George Carlin
|
|
George Carlin, whose routine "Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television" led to a key Supreme Court ruling on obscenity, died June 22nd 2008 in Santa Monica, CA at the age of 71.
George Carlin was so much more than a stand-up comic. He was a subversive public figure who sought out controversy in order to bring to light issues of free speech, political corruption, and the dangers of consumerism. Carlin used humor and vulgarity to try and wake people up to the hypocrisies around them, reminding his audiences that "it's called the 'American Dream,' because you have to be asleep to believe it." He will be missed.
