I filled up my Explorer for $30 - and it was on E! I'd been spending a lot of money on Gas lately - it was getting outrageously expensive.

And now, I can laugh at everyone who sold off their nice big cars and SUV's for crummy little compact Hybrids thinking they'd save a pile of money. HAHA! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I believe that this was only one of many, increasingly severe, price hikes. It is generally recognized that as a species we have already found all the easily exploited (cheap) sources of oil. From here on out it's a matter of sucking the fields dry before moving on to more difficult sources. It shouldn't be considered a "Well, glad that's over" event but rather a warning that we need to be covering our asses before the real crisis hits. We need to be retooling transportation, manufacturing and domestic applications for maximum efficiency and install renewable energy devices now, not in 20 years when it will the cost will be tripled.

as a species? not individually? just busting.

i keep hearing about these massive oil reserves, but i agree for several reasons. the united states is the pioneer of the world. what we invent, the japanese refine and eventually do better. video games, cars, guitars, home stereos... eventually windows will take the back seat to some operating system that'll probably debut on playstation 8 or something.

we need something new and i don't think it'll come with a new way to propel four wheels using one or more motors that don't run on gas. still basically the same machine, in terms of the job it does, just doing it differently.

Unleaded is an equivalent of $7.00 here in the UK...it won't last forever and will always go up. Our price is heavily loaded with tax though.....
