Working as I do with computers, and for an audioconferencing company, you
folks
aren't taking into account technology as a solution. Except for
management's
inability to cope with the concept, thre is no particular reason why I have
to 'go
to work' every day. I could stay home and save the entire cost of the
commute.
Like the oil rig, this can't be for everybody, but it should (will) become
the norm for
many of us.

Subject: re: No more oil
As a native of the UK and still a frequent visitor, I think Ted Davis
may be a little over-enthusiasitic about the "British solution."
Despite UK planning rules, and the undoubted benefits of preserving
green space around developments,I have watched British roads and
highways become the most congested in Europe over the past 25 years,
even while gas prices were climbing to their >$4/USgall levels. The
traffic back-ups around London can be as bad as around New York...
