Light Sweet Crude Oil
 
Member Quotes
Oil's energy contribution has declined by about 12% since 1999. The world's economies have also declined by about 12%. (Using conventional metrics, which are time delayed determinations, this will only be seen in hind sight). The massive destruction of asset values now occurring testifies to it happening. Peak is well behind us, world economies have peaked and will continue to decline.

As a Warren Zevon fan, I could not resist putting up a link to at least one of his songs:
Lawyers, Guns, and Money

After the turbulence in the financial markets last week, the lyrics seem appropriate.
Quote:
I was gambling in Havana
I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
Dad, get me out of this

I'm the innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
Between the rock
and a hard place
And I'm down on my luck

I'm hiding in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
The sh*t has hit the fan


Just update the lyrics slightly and you have the current financial crisis:
Quote:
They were gambling on Wall Street
They took a little risk
Send the taxpayers money
Ben, get them out of this

I'm the innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
Between the rock
and a hard place
And I'm down on my luck

They're hiding in DC
They are desperate men
Send the taxpayers money
The sh*t has hit the fan
