The problem with Rape is that it is a very destructive crop.
A field of rape can only be sustained for a few seasons before it literally almost steralises the soil.
That said, I reckon a cyclical system of rape once every ten years or so could be substainable.
crop, fallow, crop, fallow, crop, fallow, crop, fallow, rape, fallow...

What I don't understand is why the price of everything made with/from oil (i.e. 99.99% of goods) dosn't rise when oil prices go up, just fuel, wich is heavily taxed and everyone needs to buy... oh, hang on.....

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down and that's not really the car's fault.

I'm going to stop using my Volvo for work. It's only 2 miles, I can walk, or cycle. The most fun option though is to build an electric bicycle with a 24volt motor. Project RetroLectric Bike is on. Watch this space. For a while.
During the last fuel protests, I just managed to survive scootering to work which was a 12 mile journey then. My wife didn't. She had to take holiday when the car ran dry. These protests are only going to work if big business gets involved. No chance there.

Many years ago I changed my driving style to cope with rising fuel prices; I have now reached the stage where I am contemplating keeping my eyes shut in order to lower wind resistance.
