... the bell-hop boy tells you in the hotel elevator that he has bought
oil and gold futures on NYMEX and brags about the killing he made
last month.

Ye arent there yet, so chill.

Although I had the security guard telling me the other day the gas prices are so high because SA is running out of oil. I am sure he secretly reads other people's WSJ early before they have picked them up.

...when you start hearing mentions of "Peak Oil" in the cafeteria.
...when people stop driving god-damned Hummers to make up for their small phallus.
...when people start demanding the heads of oil-producing nations.
...when the USA annexs the 51st state - Canada.
...when Chavez is demonized in the public realm - and everyone knows it is propaganda, but cares too much about oil to face it.
...when a resurgance of paid-'opposition' against Climate Change resurges - leading to the expansion of coal and other powerplants.

I hear that. But that's mainly myself talking.

But actually, joking aside, i've had conversations with fellow students and professors about it, and they seem pretty well informed. Some are firm-crash or TSHTF believers while others are the "I'll just ride my bike" kind of people.
