Internationally syndicated columnist
Gwynne Dyer gives a very good overview
of why crude oil prices are so high
($95 per barrel as of early November, 2007).
 

Another very good column by Dyer from just a
few days later. The only thing he doesn't mention
is the fact that there are "peak energy exports",
which will make the situation worse for countries
that are net importers. Canada imports about as much
as it exports, so we're even. But it'll be tough for
nations such as the U.S., which is a huge net mporter.

(I question whether
I'll get into an accident
when I drive my car,
but I don't question
the need for insurance.)

A good primer
on how
to lie
without lying.
 
(Just don't
tell the
whole truth).

The REAL reason
for the high prices
at the pumps!
 


 

Peak oil can be a very scary subject.
But I think it was FDR who said,
"...the only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
