Here you have embraced the essence of my ancient argument--their fear and 
ignorance would stop them. I don't think that fuel would be the issue; food 
shortages are more likely, and lack of humane courtesy would end the 
migration far short of a good homestead location. Intersections would be 
jammed with insanity.
