I remember the 70s as well. Long lines at the pumps but no rioting up here in Illinois. Sure am glad it was all over in Ohio before I transferred there. I guess I should start on my bomb shelter. Oh yea more scare tactics that didn't materialize.
Remember that we have about 300 million residing in the USA a lot more than in the 70s. I don't know but would speculate that the percentage of theft, based on population, for gas and food is a lot less now than 30 years ago. It might be worth checking out for someone with a lot of time on their hands. Me, I'm too busy getting the 5ver ready for another trip.
