This is resulting, right now in a defacto shift of oil use from the West to the East (China etc) like many of us have been expecting for years, this may continue for quite a while too, even past peak oil (if we haven't peaked already) after which oil use may go down faster in the West than it does in the east as the marginal production opportunities created by oil are and be greater there than it is in the US and, to a much lesser extent but also in Europe. It will all converge at some point though.

The US is welcoming demand destruction and after the Olympics China will usher it in also.

$80 oil here we come. Good thing $80 is still high.

People still driving like crazy up in these parts. I really haven't noticed much of a decrease. The price goes back down a buck a gallon and people will start buying SUV's again.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('FoxV', 'w')e'll never see oil in single digits again.

Hmmm...don't even remember.
I save pics that I think I may want to use in the future to my HD whenever I come across them.

It is actually just a trick of the camera that isn't well seen when the picture is cropped. The dog is jumping after a frisbee or something that the lady is holding just in front of her. (Appologies if anyone is disappointed) Thought the effect came out quite well after cropping it.

Once Dolly hops into the Gulf and gets her feet wet, maybe we'll have the largest INCREASE in oil in 17 years!

There is no way that market manipulators can arrest the oil price curve. Demand destruction can, however, accomplish that. As we enter the peak period, which may last a while, we should be prepared for wild price fluctuations in which there is real uncertainty in the markets as to which way things will go. No one should be surprised if we see oil at $85 sometime in the fall. Neither should they offer any exclamation if we see $200 in two years. This is going to be a wild ride!
