In the coming decades energy may take a back seat to water. Much of the world is without adequate water supplies and as villages in the third world become less isolated, people are less willing to simply suffer and die from lack of decent living conditions. Water will become the new oil.

Many of the Cubans who migrated here were mostly white and of European descent. Then the mixed race Cubans moved out. Most of the mixed race Cubans are mostly white. Some are mostly black, almost no all black Cubans even in Cuba. Even the white Cubans have at least a small amount of black or moorish blood, very few Cubans with even dark brown hair. From what I have read there is very very little Amerindian blood in any Cuban. They were all killed out centuries ago. Which is interesting because the term Hispanic comes from a Carribean Indian tribe. I don't think that's correct. The term Hispanic comes from the Roman name Hispania for the Iberian peninsula on which Spain and Portugal are located: en.wikipedia.org Its why Latinos prefer the term Latino........which stands for Latin America and includes the Amerindian population of Central and South America, not just Europeans.
