From the news....

"The 13-nation global oil cartel — which includes Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's Iran and Hugo Chavez's Venezuela — will hold an emergency meeting in Vienna Friday to discuss the steep and rapid decline in oil prices.

"The era of cheap oil is finished," Iran's Oil Minister Gholamhossein Nozari boasted on Tuesday.

When asked what price Iran would want for its oil, Nozari declared, "The more the better."

I don't know about you but that arrogance pi $ $ es me off. Let us redouble our efforts to conserve. Lets make them, as a group, sell us LESS oil at a LOWER price. Maybe then they will look at their individual national bottom lines and make decisions to increase output. They have become accustomed to a luxurious lifestyle - at our expense - and if we hit them in their pocketbooks it will get their attention. Lets try to change that by conservation, drilling, building nuclear plants, using the wind, natural gas....anything at our disposal.

Massive and continuing transfers of our wealth to these tinhorns threatens our existence as we know it. This is the real war we must win.
