+The warm water spills north and south through a series of ocean currents
+that mirror to some degree the cells in the atmosphere above the water.
+Like the atmospheric cells, for instance, these giant oceanic gears
+---called gyres--- fall unders the influence of the winds and the Coriolis
+effect and form loops that move water first away from the equator, then
+parallel, and then back to rejoin the equatorial currents. The familiar
+Gulf Stream is one of these gyres, and because of its unique characteristics
+it has particular salience to the fortunes of many civilizations.

+Making oil requires a specific series of geological accidents over
+inconceivable amounts of time. First, organic-rich sediment needs to
+be burried faster than it can decay. Then the stuff needs to get pushed
+miles down into the earth's crust to be cooked slowly. Burried too
+deep or cooked too fast and the organic molecules burn off;
+trapped too shallow or not for long enough and the muck never
+turns into oil. Finally, an impermeable layer needs to seal the
+oil in a porous layer of rock from which it can be recovered. Then
+somebody has to find it and get it out of the ground. It takes
+millions of years to produce a barrel of oil; we use millions of
+barrels a day. There is no question that we will run out of oil ---
+the only question is when.
