Look out, re-create 68ers, the crap cannon is looming

Today, in between Dingy Harry and Sandy Burglar blasts, John McCain impressions, and calling the old whore on Sex and the City just that, Rush Limbaugh mentioned a Fox News story about Denver law enforcement's plans for the upcoming Democratic convention: Breaking out ol' brown note. You may have heard about the Democrat lunatic fringe, wanting to "re-create 1968" (a reference to the violent protests at the 1968 Dem. convention held in Chicago) , with modern day riots of their own. Well, Denver PD is considering using a "crap cannon" to combat the crowds. The device emits a low frequency tone, which causes one to....well, crap their pants. Sounds eerily similar to a SouthPark episode, where an instrument plays a note that causes those near to run away while saying: "I think I crapped my pants!" Those guys over at the Denver PD....they're OK!

Why Oil Prices Will Tank


This CNNMoney/Fortune article gets it exactly right:


"Arguments that $4-a-gallon gas (or even higher) is here to stay are dead wrong. Housing's boom-and-bust cycle tells you why.


NEW YORK (Fortune) -- High-flying tech stocks crashed. The roaring housing market crumbled. And oil, rest assured, will follow the same path down.
Not everyone agrees. In an echo of our most recent market frenzies, some experts pronounce that the "world has changed," and that the demand spikes, supply disruptions, and government bungling we face now will saddle us with a future of $4, $5 or even $10 a gallon gasoline.
But if you stick to basic economics, it's clear that the only question is when - not if - prices will succumb."


Read the whole thing and find out why $4 a gallon is unsustainable.
Malaysians are rioting over 84 cent a gallon gasoline, up from 50 cents because their government can't afford to keep paying the $2-3 a gallon subsidy they've been providing to their citizens. Something will have to give; either the Malaysian treasury, Malaysian ability to pay, or demand. Similar situations are playing out in India, China, Iran, and many other nations that subsidize gasoline sales.
X will explain in a future post why now is the time to increase gas taxes in the U.S. and it's got nothing to do with Global Warming.
