Seeing as there were no objections and as it seems that
2008 is going to go down in history as the year of global
peak oil [1] I have created this topic (it'll be a while

If anyone wants to help with ticking "Energy Crisis" on
past newswire articles and features that should be in this
topic that would be great.
