The resource wars have already begun, and they will not end until most of us our dead. We didn't deserve this planet. Good luck everyone. America has gone to devils, and madness rules the day.

Expect $150 oil and supply disruptions by July ... sooner, of course, if Cheney has his way in Iran. We’ll fall off the oil-supply cliff next year.

I don't think the Chinese and Indian markets are being correctly accounted for in the usage column from now until 2011. If you look at purely Barrels per day #'s... hard to imagine global production ever hitting the 86mbd mark again. I say we have peaked, July 2006, and we will be on the "Rocky Plateau" for a couple of years with up and down numbers but steadily heading down by 3-5% a year after 2009... by 2011 we will be in a full withdrawal from the happy motoring utopia and involved in a all-or-nothing resource war with the "New Axis"... China, Russia and the MIddle East.
