Some friend sent me that link one time. I had a good laugh.

Anyways, I'm paying about $1.70 for the high grade stuff. Could be a lot worse, I guess, but luckily I don't drive much while I'm at school.

Thats a really good site I spent about an hour on it, most of what this guy says is true. Thing is what exactly does he want us to do, or should I say can we do? Afterall we are a petrolieum civilization.


And epj you gotta love those PA gas prices, NJ too, heading out there this week, problem is by the time I get home I've got 1/4 tank less.

Do you know how much of the world is run on oil? Not only most every car in the world but many electric plants run off it too. If we develop backup plans and reduce our dependence on oil then sutch a catrasophy wont occur but if we were to loose oil tomorow then that seems very acurate.

I dunno about you, but I've sorta become dependent on plastics. I suppose if I had to, I could just convert my car to run off of vegetable oil, but I need plastics in all parts of my life. Like this keyboard I'm typing on.

The story behind Alien (the book, didn't see the entire movie) is good. The crew is basically an oil barge taking oil pumped from other places back to earth not for fuel, but to make plastics.

Yeah, but we're fine. You must have missed the presidential initiatives...we're going hydrogen. Soon-ish. We're also going to Mars.

Hmmmmm……

NYC people can fill up at a Palisades Parkway gas station (after the GWB, where it immediately becomes NJ, by Exit 1, Englewood)...it's not too far out of your way if you're close to the GWB...but then again you have to pay like $4.50 just to cross the GWB so I guess it's a no-win situation for New Yorkers, unless you're heading into NY/NY State anyways.
