Of course, as soon as the price start's to drop a little they have to do something to keep them up. The other day I was able to get half a tank for under $100. It's to bad that we have got to a point as to think 20 gallons for under $100 is good!
I guess the only thing to do is

This will ultimately push renewable energy forward, permanently crippling the oil companies grasp on everyone...
I worry how long this could really take though, look at all the speculation "Oh my god, were running out of oil !!!"
The only oil we'll run out of is the cheap kind.

Here's another source of Biofuel: Switchgrass.
Biofuels from Switchgrass: Greener Energy Pastures
This is non-food just like the algae.

Yes, lets work on alt-fuels without burning up our food supply please.
In the meantime, drill as much as possible, build nuke plants, dig for some coal, including the dirty kind like I have here in PA. I understand the new coal plants can use this "dirty" coal and keep the emissions clean? Or, these plants arent far away?
Just stop burning up the food supply. I heard this is the first time in US history that we are importing grain........

To build one nuke plant if there are no legal hurdles(interest groups that oppose it etc) it will take 12 years from getting the paper work til it becomes operational. That will have to change if you expect nuke plants to be a viable alternative in a rough near time like McCain is proposing. This is according to a man in Michigan were his company is in the process of finishing filing paper work for a new nuke plant and those figures are according to him.
Coal is coal, it's how they extract it determines on if it's clean or dirty. Back to algae they are thinking about using algae to clean up coal emmissions and use the extra emissions to feed the algae and use in order to have more oil to harvest for biodiesel. This is just in the testing phases, but it shows promise. That was also in the U. of V. article I mentioned earlier.
That's the first I'm hearing of that. You have a credible source on that one?

Here's a BIO FUEL idea that would cut oil import's and also STOP TAILGATER'S, unlike that great french fry smell from Mc Donald's used oil

I heard it on a radio/television show from a guy I feel is pretty credible, and I did just look up a Fed document, department of Ag I think, ill have to find it again. This table graph showed grain imports doubling in four years, since 2004.
Oh, and I know nuke plants wont come right online, but if we keep saying that, its just another day, another month, year, years......before any are started.
