perhaps it is simply the democratization of war.

Hey, $100+/BBL oil would be good for the environment, and would spur the development of even better-for-the-environment energy sources....

...which would take 1-2 decades to implement in majority.

Woah, you sure know how to be a killjoy -- especially considering I was only being half-serious in the first place!

So was I. It'd probably take 2-4 decades.



Although thats an aspect a lot of people dont incorporate into the oil alternatives thinking. Most trucks and busses carry 20 year+ service lives and many cars are in service for 10-20 years. Unless we struck an option very compelling and cheap (or the oil just simply evaporates and is no longer available), we're stuck with it for a pretty long time.
