We could very well see oil hit 80 or above with the state of affairs in the world today and our continued consumption as the world's largest consumer of petro products.

Interesting, but we have to go nuclear to survive. (supplemented by hydro, solar and wind) Wood will kill us as quickly as oil and coal.

No wonder the indian tribes of Maine are trying to take back most of the state.

In other news, I have already put up 8 cords for my heat for this winter. :)

True that Bonk, nothing like adding more pollution to our atmosphere. I've read about oil being created from trash believe it or not. I'm not saying we should keep the gasoline engine (very inefficient) but we do need petro products in almost every part of our lives.
