Thanks Debbie! Great to see an economist with a sense of humour. If it is any consolation, I'm a glorified IT nerd.

What does a computer programmer use for contraception?
His personality :-)

Thanks Phil. Over the last week I have seen the price of oil shoot up unbelievably, and heard at least 2 more very credible people say that Peak OIl occured in 2006. I'm really ready to hear some jokes - I need them.

Q:What do you get when you cross an economist with a werewolf?
A: Nothing. There are some things even a dog won't do.

Q:How many economists does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: None. They can't see the spreadsheet to decide if the lightbulb is worth changing.
