As for the doom and gloom oil predictions that Sir Tainly posted. I have heard all that before. ohhh back in 1976 or 1975. According to the same people we ran out of oil rougly 12 years ago. Amazing how that works.... Some day we may actualy deplete the worlds oil reserves but we don't really know how much there is and may have only just tapped a small portion of what really exists. Either way, by the time we are actually out of oil, Im pretty confident we will have alternatives...wer already do...its just that cheap oil makes the alternatives economicly infeasable.

I agree Magik that oil may last longer than expected, but its like driving a car and trying to stop..you don't wait until you hit the vehicle in front to start braking

Reduce oil consumption now, and have it last longer while alternatives are developed. Right now alternatives are years behind in the level of technology, we can't wait until oil runs out before we start reseaching. LPG is starting to become an alternative in the UK, but we are a small market, the biggest users of cars/oil would need to make a change for alternatives to be properly developed and to be economically viable.
