David Warren is right....and if our Congress and Administration would but read the article, they should immediately go into a battle format to find alternative sources of energy just as soon as humanly possible!

Including a PR campaign that tells even the laziest Americans just what will happen to each of them, if the oil situation is not changed and new and economical (oxymoron???) sources are invented and become available...

Such a challenge could bring about the sort of "new world order", compared to which a few million casualties might seem a lucky break. It would create an order in which North America, Western Europe, and Japan, were deprived of the use of high technology, by the loss of the fuel to move goods around; and likewise deprived of the food supplies that require oil at every stage of production and distribution. All the cards of power would be suddenly transferred from the bourgeois democracies to the planet's most ruthless dictatorships.
