peak oil
at least one reputable sounding group is quoted as claiming that peak oil happened in 2006. and that oil production is going to decline by 7% a year. hmm... sounds kinda alarmist. but if true it means the world is about to experience a bit of an economic downturn. hardest hit will be any industry that depends on fuel. like airlines, tourism, agriculture, manufacturing, construction, etc. less hard hit will be industries that rely on electricity. like world of warcraft. it's already what? the 60th largest economy in the world. your home computer will transform a bit. ain't sayin how exactly. only that i hold the patents. filed last week. so the old rules apply. i'm gonna be so rich.
