WAY OT

Agreed. That is why I think this is another manifestation
of human arrogance. Blaming climate changes on human
activity is a way of saying that everything important
occurs because of humans.

As a species, we think that we drive everything, or in
other words we still see ourselves as the center of the
universe. Good science is slowly breaking down that
misconception, but I think it will still take centuries
for humans in general to get it. We are unwilling to
admit that the forces of the universe, or even just of
the earth, are far more powerful than the total collection
of humanity.

Re: future crude demand - we must look at fuel cells as the next "threat" to crude demand. On the horizon, the 3 big auto companies are in JV's w/ fuel cell companies, trying to develop batteries that will run on some type of natural gas derivative. It may be inert hydrogen or it may be methanol, but whatever it is gasoline may be foresaken for natural gas derived fuel. This is long-term thinking, but it seems to be materializing.
