I swear, some mornings I don't know where my head is. Hot and sunny today, no rain, and I drive the 15mpg rx-7, rather than the 50mpg motorcycle.

We pay around 85 cents (european) a litre over here whatever that works out as, and if you think thats bad then ask yonner (wherever he is) how much he pays for petrol.

$1 = 1.18 eurus, so you're looking at just over a dollar a litre.

If 1$ = 1.18 Euros, then .85 euros/Liter ends up being $2.72 per Gal. Not too bad.

The Hubbert's Peak theory is that the crude oil reserves beneath the earth have peaked and are now on the decline. Predictions vary from 2005-2020 that an oil crisis of biblical proportions will occur making the 70's oil crises look like a joke.



Society will collapse. He hints that the Iraqi invasion wasn't about terrorism or weapons but more of a chance for the USA to seize a major oil producer. He also predicts Suai Arabia and Assyria are next. Those aquisitions will spark WWIII.



Its the internet so take it for what its worth but iit will make you think.
