HEHEHE, How about another 1000 rebate ,and I'll prepay your next years additional gas expenditure. By then we'll have Iraq pumping an extra million barrels per day and well on the way to an additional 4 million per day on the design boards. This is a flash in the pan - in the long term. I really do believe in the long term - this spike will usher in global supply and competition that will ensure cheap energy till 2020 and or the Hydrogen transition. It is George W's long term legacy that he'll be enshrined for. JMHO Bob

Great post MR McVICKAR! Your spot on about the price in terms of a declining dollar.... IMO this is all good motivation to begin getting on with Oil alternatives. Take a look at these solar cells in this picture. Now this is a real way of knocking down demand... Gas and OIL have wide spread demand utility...IMO if you can strike down just one of its demand component markets, you alter the S&D equation. Solar Energy, Wind farms; its all good, and every KWH produced from these sources reduces demand. After 30 years of waiting, me thinks its going to happen quickly....new products produced in novel but effective ways...alter the comparative advantages of the last 40 years. Cool stuff take a look. Take a look at the photo at this link.... solarintegrated.com What you will see is a revolutionary way of installing solar cells....notice the white shirts....and the huge roll about to be laid down along side all the others already installed! Things have changed...SATC makes the inverters for these new systems.....those are what connect the cell production deployed on a roof to your electricity infrastructure. ENER makes the solar cells on rolls.
