Yes, eventually we will run out of oil, but before that happens the price will have risen so high (and slowly I might add because of speculation) that alternatives will have been researched and developed and use decreased so much that it would not matter. Peak Oilers are much like any other environmentalists; they remain willfully ignorant about basic economic principles.TonyFernandezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07577417779317914721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674333464171899932.post-85248779723618957602011-05-02T05:57:10.609-06:002011-05-02T05:57:10.609-06:00Indeed it is, MK!Indeed it is, MK!Silverfiddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13541652236676260219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674333464171899932.post-45063278744883442002011-05-01T22:28:04.015-06:002011-05-01T22:28:04.015-06:00Did you hear the news, they finally got that sonof...Did you hear the news, they finally got that sonofabitch osama.

Even if that were so, then would human activity be part of the forces of nature —thereby, a natural phenomenon?

We're moving toward "cleaner" energy sources, and the best way to do that is with the free market (as with all other technological advances outside of military ones). That BO is purposefully forcing the issue is a huge gamble for him and will most likely cost him 2012. Cutting off (by making ridiculously and unnecessarily expensive) fossil fuels before there is an alternate, cost-effective energy source that can actually take the enormous energy burden of our nation is irresponsible, even cruel. The people who will suffer most, ironically, are much of his base. Don't expect them to thank him for $7 or $9 gas and all the price hikes on literally everything that accompany it.Fuzzy Slippershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13021615731454709413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674333464171899932.post-32535794278172072982011-05-01T05:56:35.877-06:002011-05-01T05:56:35.877-06:00Silver, Thats the point of "going green"...Silver, Thats the point of "going green"; destroy jobs and energy in order to control people and their mobility.
