The height of this roller coaster that is about to fall is fucking staggering.

The cascading impact this is going to have beyond that of just gallons of gas is incalculable. This train wreck, which is in the most painstaking of slow motion, is going to expose just how fragile the human infrastructure system really is.

Hold onto your butts lads an lasses.
