I'm not wasting much time on worry. After all, I can't do much about the
insanity in the world, so why worry? OTOH, if the price of oil jumps up
precipitously, we're going to see unemployment and a rise in prices of
imported goods at the very least. I don't need a lot, but I can't imagine
that high-priced oil will be painless even so.
