America is at the beginning of the most profound wake up call of this industrial age ,why do I sound so bleak? because there are few signs that new oil fields are emerging to keep up with demand period. you don't have to look at it any closer then that it is cut and dry, slowing down of production with increases in demand equal high prices at the pump. There is a market shift as we speak that identifies itself with an economy that is and has been living beyond it means in energy consumption falling victim to this tight rope that american consumerism has set us up for. bring on the hybrid and all visit the humm-v at the museum
