Washington Post Online "Oil Shock"
The Washington Post is starting a multi-part series concerning the oil situation today. The link is above to part one. This is a significant development as many powers that be here in DC read the Post like the Bible.
You MAY need to establish an account to view the article I linked above. |

| A great link...thanks FK. Seems as though they did a fairly representative opening. It will be interesting to see the following details especially when speculating about undiscovered reserves and alternate scaling. |

Nice. It actually mentioned the dreaded words "peak oil". I wasn't expecting that. No "die off" scenarios, though. That would have been wishful thinking. _________________ http://doomsteaddiary.blogspot.com/ |

Washington Post: Oil Shock Part 2 (China)
The series continues and the imagery of a China striving for their dreams of an "American" life are chilling. Small cars are actually officially penalized and only big vehicles like Hummers feel "manly". We are in for some serious trouble. |

| China is sliding into a major recession. The big money is exiting oil, as a consequence. Oil is now 117, per barrel, down from almost 150.00. |
