More fuel for thought

too long on this issue and that we have already passed the point where the
changes necessary and either implemented or discovered, can no longer be
made in time to make any difference in the inevitable outcome;

Oil is $110/bbl and climbing. Gasoline is on a similar path. Those facts
alone are already starting to give serious economic impetus to alternative
energy development.

Yeah, there's going to be pain, but watch the good ol' profit motive produce
its usual surprising results in wind, solar thermal, PV, biodiesel, etc.
