Hello Everyone,
The cyclone took 128,000 lives and the earthquake took 50,000 lives,
but there is no bigger crisis in the world than expensive oil's
threat to take away America's SUVs and destroy our consumer-driven
economy. Though the following article suggests that solutions are
available, I think those attempting to save the auto-and-consumption
addicted economy are doing the world great harm.
