The Green Godess Mother Gaia will be on the phone with Algore and her other earthly minions, trying to thwart all attempts to make “OIL” a cheap affordable long term source of energy.

She has big investments in windmills and electric cars and rubber bands.

I was thinking of that too. Oil prices where they are basically are the final argument as far as I'm concerned. Who needs alternative energy. If the market is right, which is arguably never is these days in the SHORT term, but if the 40s is where oil is going to sit for a long time, then the message is that there is ample supply of cheap oil, and alternatives just are not required.
