Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

In Armenia, they get lots of money from the diaspora. Money that goes to things like nice new paved roads. But Armenia is so poor only the military can afford gasoline. So all cars are run on natural gas, imported from and subsidised by Russia.

Appearantly, it it very easy to convert ordinary cars to run on natural gas.

In the event of a sudden cessation of oil imports to us, count on that happening.

That's what I call a steep decline rate...

See how they don't use any heavy fuel oil anymore? They switched to biofuels. Chopped down all their forests.

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