You're gonna see a lot of drive-offs. The thing that reallly kills me is the Oil Companys are enjoying record profits.

Yea... and what really sticks in your craw we're probably funding terrorism with these prices...who cares as long as we don't have to look at those unsightly windfarms

they may be a little unsightly, but you will see them and more and more!!
I am not saying that they are the best or only power alternative, but we need to do something and do it soon!!

HOW do you do 3-400 miles a week on that lil' sandpile?
I do 350ish a week and I dont live on an island...

BTW I am mildly envious of your sandpile; you have onshore conditions somewhere ....when it blows NW

Oh and Gas sucks, my exploder does 16 in town; weighing the benifits costwise of a small P/U with a 4 or 6cldr....

Well if I live mid -island and have three jobs going at the same time I can do 50-75 miles in one day unless I chain myself to one job. Then it is 22 miles from where I live to GP/Coatue (where there aren't any fish by the way. I go sunbathing) so multi on that 3 -4 nights a week and you see ?

Yes we have onshore conditions somewhere everyday.....

Angry in the imediate future

according to the history chanel show i watched (yesterday) about global warming...

and it talked about how the worlds use of fosil fuels is the cause of it...
with the build up of c02 in the atmosphere....blah blah blah

and how eventually the gulf stream will stop altogether because the difference in ocean temperatures will no longer be present....
throwing europe into a permanent ice age...

((that'll mean the striped bass may not head south in fall any longer... ))

but as early as 2019 we might run out of oil all together.... and up until then the price of oil/fuel will be astronomical....compared to today's prices...
wind mill farms will be everywhere because its renewable...energy
i was stunned to tell you the truth and still am...

because "today" our food is GROWN with fertilizer made from oil as is all plastic materials and is the basis for our whole economic system.

so this little price hike is NOTHING.
