To take a CONTRARIAN view, $8 to $20 per gallon gas would be a GODSEND. Why? It would finally make competing solutions affordable. High oil prices would push alternatives to reach economies of scale they couldn't otherwise attain with low priced fossil fuel around.
Alternatively, it would PUSH the technology described in this thread to proceed at a faster pace.
Oftentimes, we have to go through pain before being pushed to a whole new higher plane.
