The Coming Oil Crisis
Dan Ackman,  01.13.05, 6:00 AM ET

Today,  China and India use the energy-equivalent of 5.5 barrels of oil per  
person per year, while rich nations use 39.
-----------------------------------------

Wow, that's a huge disparity.  It also brought this image to mind.  Many of 
us have seen the picture of cars on a street, then a picture of just the 
people that are in the cars standing on the same street.  Only now, imagine 
each of those people standing next to 39 oil barrels.
