God knows I think we need to move away from oil for a lot of reasons. But I would certainly agree that a sudden disruption of oil right now would be devistating. Again, I'm assuming that's what it was about, somehow. Hard to imagine it's not, but since they won't tell us, who knows?

But, that assumption made, wouldn't you think we would be working much harder to develop something else? I did hear a story about our Military investing in Solar for bases over-seas. They were talking about oil being a liability 'cause the baddies keep bombing our oil shipments.
