    I'm currently writing an essay on the most important substance in the world today. I should have it ready and posted within a few days. I'll leave this thread open for those who may want to guess what it is!

    It must be love, love, love...

    Metaphysical stuff totally counts, right?

    Ah it must be me that answered correctly! I think we can immediately rule out botox and love (which is hardly a substance;)) Oil has alternatives, albeit not immedaitely viable alternatives in every case presently. Its going to be depleted in 40 odd years or so if not sooner, so under them circumstances its hardly going to take the accolade.

    Oxygen? Carbon? Water?
    (It better not be 'love' or 'hope' or other such intangible nonsense)
