There's no accounting for the possibility that we will discover the likes of 
dilithium crystals.  But short of that, there just isn't the potential to 
replace the energy we get from oil.

What would cause OPEC, EXXON, and the entire industrial world to wet itself 
is if we discovered and researched a new mindset that didn't WANT as much 
energy.   </HTML>
