I might be very pessimistic about how the oil problem with play out, if we have not changed to renewable resources in time.

I live of the masses, when they get worried, and depressed, then they stop buying, I need the world to be a somewhat calm place, so people will think about sex, and not about survival. However if they can not do this, then I will soon be out of a job, and so will all of those who I pay my bills too, and so on.

Renewable energy is the only energy form, which will allow a market economy to always grow. However aslong as oil have a better ROI, then we will keep sucking those arab oil tities, leaving our faith in the hands of a few geologist who mostly agree that there not really so many places left on land, where we might find oil.

I do not think politicians are hearing what geologists are saying, so I will be willing to take 1-2 years of problems, which will make the world unite with a common goal to get the energy problem solved - I can not see how any of our current politicians will do this by their own will, without a major problem getting closer (we have tried the possible saudi arabia chaos situation, however still politicians sleep, so I´m thinking they need a wake up call closer to home, when they fill up their SUV, and see prices close to $5-7/gallon).

damn - I sound like a michael moore activist, but its getting really frustrating looking at the oil price going the same way as a runaway train, which no man can stop, but only try to avoid.
