I would take this kind of theatre as evidence that Chavez's regime is teetering.

En un viejo país ineficiente, algo así como España entre dos guerras civiles, poseer una casa y poca hacienda y memoria ninguna. -- Gil de Biedma

Hardly. This kind of clownery is the hallmark of the Chavez regime. Remember when he told people to shower less? Or built the dairy factory in the middle of nowhere, in spite of there being no cows for it?

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

You can't tell whether this is Venezuela's or Columbia's theatre. If, as Venezuela claims, they took downf illegal border crossings, there is nothing special about that.
