A couple days back I read how Helium is in short supply and if we are not careful that dire consequences await...
Bummer! Looks like little Johnny won't have those balloons for his birthday and doing the funny voice thing will be a thing of the past! Jokes aside, Helium is a very needful thing (my fridge would not work without it) and running out of it not good at all.
If anyone should get it, folks who go to sea on small boats know all about finite resources and while peak oil is the rock star of those things we are running out of just maybe it is past time to take notice of what else we use that is in finite supply...
Interesting times indeed!
