Hi Down,

Wise words. I remember that you have an interest in ecology. Unfortunately this is a global problem, not just the US.

If you think of all the products that are made from crude oil, including pesticide and fertilisers, and then think that it is a finite and diminishing resource - ouch.

Our children will be living in a different world, it will happen in their lifetimes!

Cheers,M

PS - I know this is not the place to discuss these issues, so I'll leave it there.
