Our worst nightmare

There was a very interesting program on CNN today. It just looked at the current oil crisis in a hypothetical "what-if" way. I must appreciate the creativity of the reporter who made that feature. Imagine what will happen if...

1) On some day in September 2009, a category-5 hurricane devastate state of Texas, especially all the oil refineries.
2) Gas prices rock the stock markets as 25% of USA's oil is processed in Texas.
3) Osama Bin Laden sees this and plans an innovative attack.
4) Two days later, Saudi Arabia's two biggest oil-export ports are bombed in 9/11 fashion.
5) Oil prices cross $9 mark in United States..
6) Energy war starts and total chaos ensues.

Isn't our dependence on oil worth the concern....
