Sir Richard Branson has told reporters that he thinks global oil prices will hit $200 per barrel by 2010. He says that this will have a huge impact on US airlines United Airlines and American Airlines who operate older, less fuel-efficient fleets and even suggests that they could be forced into administration as a result of the relentless rise in oil prices. Branson says:
“Oil prices will continue to rise due to a combination of global demand and falling reserves. The strong airlines will survive, but one or more major US carriers will go out of business this year.”

Odd.
Conspiracy theorist David Icke predicted this 10 years ago. He was laughed out the room!
In further news the planet will cool and heat at various intervals over the next 200 years.
