I wouldn't count alternative energy out quite yet.>>> It is not what I said...$23 or $30 does not make a bit of difference..In fact with more writings on the wall there is a greater incentive to sell for more, while you can... There is no infrastructure to replace oil based economy...You know that and OPEC knows that...So the major effort of OIL companies is to find more oil/gas, rather than replace it...

<<Create alternative energy? Like we wouldn't try if we could with oil at $23 as compared to $30? That is damn argument>> Perhaps as an interesting aside, during these times of low oil & gas prices, not only were alternative energies not encouraged, they have been actively discouraged or worse OUTLAWED! There have been terrible restrictions on wood burning stoves throughout the nation, even though wood is a renewable resource. Even in places without an air pollution problem there have been placed restrictions on wood burning via building codes at the state or national level.
