Is Our Collective Oil Dependence an Addiction?

The recent post exploring whether or not our relationship to oil can be seen in terms of a dependency certainly got you going, and yielded some fascinating comments. Some other discussion boards on the net picked up the article and some people could barely restrain their fury at the notion that we might be addicted to oil. The feedback on Transition Culture was very interesting, a good balance of for and against. I wanted to make a few observations on some of the comments and respond to some of the points they raised.
