I smell recession. Compared to past energy crises, people don't care because they are flush with money. The devaluing of the dollar, increased job cuts, and the non-stop rise of oil will make even the most stubborn notice, either by choice or force.

The big questions are how high will gas get and how bad is the recession going to be? I say take these moments to enjoy the excess consumption around you, it's the end of an era.
