8 million barrels a day? No big deal. <Lest there be any doubt about this, as Larry Goldstein, president of the Petroleum Industry Research Foundation told the Wall Street Journal this week: A disruption of Saudi oil supplies is "one event to which no one has an answer." >

That's easy, put the price up so that people use less of it. Easy peasy! Of all energy consumed, 8 million barrels isn't much. It would barely dent the world's economy.

People would walk more, ride bicycles, wear warm clothes in winter and cool in summer, etc.
