When it becomes a problem. That consideration is not, nor has it ever been at play in this situation. The "finite nature" of petroleum and coal has been proclaimed by doomsayers since the 1940s. When I was in high school, we were solemnly told that petroleum would be exhausted by 1975. Since that date was two decades away and we were stupid little shits, we bought into it. No go away and peddle it to some more high school kids. -- John Higdon | Email Address Valid | http://www.anntec.com/ +1 408 264 4115 | Silicon Valley, CA | FAX: +1 408 264 4407 Cheap, provincial San Franciscans can call: 415 428-COWS
