There are other countries to rape and other resources to plunder.

Probably hydrogen.
Get ready for the Country to raise itself on Hydrolyic legs to fight Germany for resources

[QUOTE=sebmck;27952008]It's actually more like 50-70 years. Half the earths oil hasn't even been discovered yet.[/QUOTE]
How would you know how much is left if you don't even know where the rest is or if there is any...

Bitch, [I]please[/I]. Highwayman all the way.
I would laugh at all the oil barons, then become a solar power baron. Selling the sun for discount price!

...But I feed my orphans oil.
Come to think of it, that probably explains the high turnover rate.
If it ever runs out, I'll just do the same as with the ipv4-6 story - don't give a single fuck, we'll find other resources.
Use Nibbler Power!

However at the rate we are using oil, we won't have any for a couple thousand/million years.
Use OX-POWER!

the joke: whenever we run out of a thing
we just replace it
example: whale oil, when whales ran out, we started using something different
rape and pillage
We'll adapt to it, we already have alternatives that work like wind power. We will develop these so we can get around issues and cars will run on electricity which will be generated by these alternatives. I think we will be able to overcome the issues quite easily.
Baby furnace
Use wind power or solar power things, then if we run out of wind and sun we're all fucked.

From the name it's CH3OH which is just methanol.. I'm assuming you've misquoted the name.
I'll use it as an excuse to riot and get free shit from doing so.

You've got December 21st 2012 for that.
[QUOTE=furious_d;27952030]By the way things have been progressing now, we'll probably have an alternate fuel source by then.[/QUOTE]
The technology and alternatives are most likely already available, but will never get put into full affect/made mainstream/or deemed worthy until the oil companies drain the very last drop of oil from the earth. Too much money involved, and too much to lose.

On December 22nd, 2012, I will laugh.
I also predict that suicide rates will increase up until the 22nd.

This thread is trash. Everyone in here is posting things that are common knowledge, repeating what others have already stated in the thread, or making dumb jokes.
