I like to think that supply and demand economics will fix the problem when market conditions dictate. High prices spur incentives for industry to find and develop alternate sources or energy. At $100+ per barrel, within 5 years we would be well on our way to saying bye bye to oil. Might take 50 years to accomplish but it would be enough to start the aircraft carrier turning.
BTW, I like the idea of generation energy from vanity posts, which is why I responded.

Not bye bye to oil but hello to domestic production of maybe all we need from Alberta and Utah and coal.
