To give you some perspective, 12 months ago (Feb 2007),
US Crude was $60 a barrel.

Today it was ......................$99 a barrel.

That's approx a 66% increase in 12 months.

You can expect inflation to increase everything now.
Transportation costs will effect the price of all other goods,
including food, and energy bills.

Because of the current credit crunch in worldwide banking,
governments around the global are printing money like
fornicating rabbits. They need inflation to reduce the value
of the debt, not the mathematical expression of it. Similar
to how inflation, over decades, shrinks the value of the
mortgage you pay.
A £20,000 mortgage, 20 years ago, seems tiddly today, doesn't
it? Even though the mathematical expression of it (£20,000) is
the same.

Expect a lot more pain yet, in the price of everything.  :(
