chapter 1  
Once Upon a Time  
The Stone Age came to an end not for a lack of stones, and the oil age will end, but not for a lack of oil.
—Yamani

 
 
Importance: Reminds us of a most astounding energy history lesson. Identifies climate-security antagonism as main roadblock, and sketches path to overcome this.
Main Ideas:
The 1973-85 OPEC crisis was by far the strongest "energy policy" ever.
It helped the climate much more than Kyoto has.
It caused the world to crush OPEC for 18 years.
We can do this policy ourselves and keep the revenue at home.
