Okay - it worked the last time so I'm going to play for nice looking numbers again.

$100 on 08/08/08

It's not as pretty as the last time, but sure there it goes.

As a second guess of course I'll say that it will be $80 on 08/08/08!

It seems totally random guesses for irrational reasons have as much chance of winning as any other!

I'll go for 31st October 2012. The INCA's claim 2012 will be the end of civilization and maybe the $100 mark may lead to economic meltdown, which in turn could lead to end of civilization 8)

This will be the falling dollar meeting the oil shortage half way? Bearing in mind that the current near-record high price also reflects a lower $. And won't they mutually reinforce all the while? $150, $200?

Anyone like to revise their bid in light of today's new record oil price?

So what's the prize? A Hummer? :D
