And, at worst, big cities would look like Detroit does today. Some high-rises could not be maintained. Sure, fine. But the streets would still be paved, and lighted with gas. And more people would be farming. I'm starting to think this whole show is a conspiracy either by environmentalists to move us towards more green energy and self-sufficiency or non-environmentalists to tout the benefits of the energy industry.
