I remember Nixon making a speech saying that "bread will never be a dollar a loaf and gas will never be a dollar a gallon". I guess he was right about the gas. It'll never again be a dollar a gallon.
During WWII the Germans made gasoline out of coal. I know because my father bombed the synthetic fuel plants. Maybe it's time to dust off the technology and build some more of them.
