$5.54/L, Richter.
(1/.2641) * 1.4648
(1/.2641) * 1.4648
181744
So, if it's 5.54 a litre
$5.54 1 litre 1gallon
------x ------------x -------- = 6.9903938
litres .264172051g $3.00
So, if I actually did that right, it would mean Hajamin is paying $6.99 a gallon, vs. our $3.00 a gallon. Go conversions!

Haji needs a bike..
I sure wouldn't pay that much.

I misspoke, Richter. That's the price per gallon.
On a side note, if it's $5.54 for one liter, how does three and a half liters only work out to $7.00? Someone slept through freshman math!

Someone failed second semester of fifth year math in fourth year of high school, and hasn't really had to do much since then.

If you want a frightening discourse on the escalating oil problems, check out Life After the Oil Crash.
That't the Olduvai theory, which I don't really believe will happen. Granted right now oil and other nonrenewable resources are our primary sources of energy, there are always renewable sources as well as possible advancements in other forms of energy such as fusion. China is the smartest country right now when it comes to energy production, if anyone here has not heard of the Three Gorges Dam project, you might wanna look it up. China will become the primary superpower of the future in my opinion.

Gas prices in the U.S. are going to continue to go up because its illegal to build new power/refinery plants in the places that need them.
Also, Europe and the rest of the world have 100% taxes on gas to fund the socialist programs.
And China doesn't know how to be a super power. They have been the largest country in the world since the mongols took it over.
Oh, and woodprices would be fine if people weren't spending 400 a piece!

It's just like the credit market was. People will keep selling at the price that others will keep buying at.

I don't know, it sounds pretty convincing! As I think is pointed out on the website, new advancements had better come soon, if at all.
China will be a frightening superpower. Maybe even moreso than America.
