The rumor
First we salute Christopher Columbus, a wise mariner and colonizer. Mostly we think of him as a great navigator but let’s not forget that he also had to raise his own money for his adventures by “pitching” his plans around Europe. On May 1, 1486, Columbus laid out his plans before Queen Isabella, of Spain, who funded the project. Columbus then built, manned and supplied a three ship unit. I guess it might also attract the unsuspecting (like me) who stumble onto the site and leads them to contribute. Take the time to explore World without Oil and maybe even create your own story. As the theme of the site says: “Play it before you live it“. Oh…and to really keep you awake, check out the transcript of the US Secretary of State (fictitious character of course)….I suspect that it might serve as a good template for a future political speech that will no doubt occur in reality. (But Mr Secretary will have to learn that “shacles” is spelt “shackles”). The rumor talk about a new Ipod Nano with bigger screen which can read movies, a new iPod Video with Hard Drive and Tactical screen like the iPhone and a update for iTunes.
