    From my main man, Steve Forbes

    Publisher Steve Forbes Says He Expects Oil Price to Dip As Low As $35 Within a Year


    SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -- Steve Forbes, the American publishing executive, said Tuesday he expects the price of oil to fall as low as US$35 a barrel within a year, blaming the current price spike largely on speculation.
    Forbes, in Sydney for a conference of global business leaders sponsored by his organization, said that U.S. inflation was helping fuel the rise "and the rest of it is a sheer bubble of speculation."

    "I think in 12 months we are going to see oil down to US$35, US$40 a barrel," he said.

    As Hurricane Katrina lashed the U.S. Gulf Coast on Monday, oil hit US$70.80 a barrel, before retreating.

    "It is a huge bubble, I don't know what's going to pop, but eventually it will pop," Forbes said of the oil price.

    F@#$ me. And we are in Iraq and Afgananistan for what now? I have no qualms about just taking the oil for Americans. We went in there and now we have to buy the S*&$? Ugh.

    I'm off to buy a bike.

    Man most of you are acting like filling up your tanks will prevent you from having to buy gas for years to come. I believe if you fill up your tank and gas hits $3 a gallon then there is a good chance you'll end up paying for $3 a gallon gas sometime anyway.

    By the way yesterday and the past 2 weeks gas in my town has been $2.54/gallon. This morning it rose to $2.59/gallon. I'll post what it is when I leave work too.

    I filled up this AM in Pasadena, CA. I paid $2.93 for 87.

    I plan on buying a hybrid or a natural gas vehicle at the end of the year to use for my work commute. (32 miles each way).
