Peak Oil lands at Fort Lewis College What: A talk by peak oil expert Steve Andrews Where: 130 Chemistry Hall at FLC When: Mon., Oct. 29 from 7-9 p.m.  Peak oil is landing in Durango this week. On Oct. 29, peak oil expert Steve Andrews will give the talk “Peak Oil Exports Now, Peak Oil Soon; How Should We Respond?” Andrews is co-founder of the Association for the Study of Peak Oil and Gas and a Denver-based energy consultant who has been speaking about the issue for nearly two decades. Independent mainstream analysts have confirmed that growth in global conventional oil production may end soon. Since no one can predict how rapidly oil production rates will fall once they peak, ASPO advocates a discussion of intelligent responses to this enormous challenge now.  Next Monday, Andrews will discuss the evolving “peak oil exports” story; present data showing looming peak oil production; explore the current focus on substitute fuels; and discuss alternatives. The free talk takes place from 7-9 p.m. in 130 Chemistry Hall at Fort Lewis College. For more information contact the Environmental Center at 247-7676.

Revered as “truly phantasmagorical and avant-garde,” Cirque Le Masque’s “Fire and Ice” pays homage to the time-honored traditions of European cirque troupes.

Founded in 1993 by Dennis and Bernie Schussel, Cirque Le Masque has captivated audiences worldwide, selling out venues from Las Vegas to Athens, Greece. Cirque Le Masque artists dance literally mid-air, performing skills that exemplify the stamina and strength of super-human bodies. Lights, music and costumes add to the spectacle. Showtime is 4 p.m. with doors to the Spotlight Lounge opening at 3 p.m. Tickets for Cirque Le Masque are available on the web at www.durangoconcerts.com, by calling 247-7657 or by visiting the Downtown Ticketing Services Offices at 7th and Main Ave.
