Crude oil prices have reached an all time high. At the time of writing, a barrel of crude oil cost $42 USD. But we shouldnt feel too bad, even though gasoline prices here in Canada are fluctuating around the $1 per litre point. In the UK (my home land) theyre handing over about $2.60 for a litre of gas and we thought we had it rough.
--- Ouch!
In fact, the soaring price of gas in the UK might spark a country-wide series of protests similar to those that paralysed the UK in early 2000. I suppose the question we might ask is are we facing a similar threat here in Canada? Somehow I doubt it, were just too polite.
In a completely unofficial poll, randomly conducted, I asked a few friends what they thought. Regrettably the responses to the gasoline price increases are unprintable.
--- @#$%&*!
Seriously though, all joking aside, while many people didnt really flinch as prices crept up during the past six months, signs are now evident that some folks are feeling the squeeze. And of course, as youd expect those in the lower income brackets are the first to feel the pinch.

Ironically the media has been speculating about the impact on the sales of bigger vehicles such as SUVs. To date there is a general feeling that if you can afford an SUV (or some other monster truck) a few extra dollars for a tank of gas is not your principal concern.Having one of the fastest street cars in the world is a dream come true for any car lover.

Im not sure I agree with this. Bigger vehicles often have bigger tanks (100 litre tanks are not unusual), so a price hike of $0.20 is still an extra $20. Add that to a tank of gas that already costs you $80 and its getting pricey. Ive owned small cars and big cars. I still dont like it when the gas prices jump up. $20 is still $20 I could have done other things with that moneyLike buy lottery tickets or half a dozen Starbucks coffees.
Of course the tree huggers (thats not my terminology Ive borrowed it from the media) who are more environmentally conscious and focus on consuming limited resources, well theyre making quite a lot of noise about it. Theyre saying we should conserve fuel, make it last.
--- An Energy Crisis
Theyre saying that if we continue on this course well undoubtedly face an energy crisis.

Well I have good news. There will NEVER be an energy crisisand I can prove it. Its called The First Law of Thermodynamics. Simply put it states that energy cannot be destroyed or created, merely changed from one form into another.No other name in the industry has ever matched Mercedes Benz? prestige and high reputation.

And since crude oil is a form of energy that we transform into another form of energy, then what we really face (if we continuing consuming it) is a format shortage or a crude oil shortage.
--- Whale Blubber
But that was on the cards from the beginning. We knew that crude oil couldnt last because it was a fossil fuel. Prior to the early 1900s we were carving up whales for oil, we didnt have cars to consume it back then so we used it for heating, lighting and other more mundane uses. Rumour has it the whales got upset and decided to stop cooperating and so we went in search of alternatives.

Its a fact, were going to run out of crude oil eventually. And while supply dwindles and demand stays high (or climbs) the prices will reflect that. Until someone develops a new way to synthesize crude oil, or create a new fuel for cars or even a new form of combustion engine. Wouldnt that be fun!The new Avalon is the third generation of Toyota's large sedan, derived from the same the midsize Toyota Camry and the Lexus ES330 entry-level luxury sedan.
