#1 Looks like there may be a need to stock up on some popcorn. I am not sure that in the swirl of events the true culprits will be nailed down (metaphorically speaking), but watch for the sales of lengthy, fiber based products to go up.

#4 ...Well, this was something that was definitely forseen: the nations whose expanded use of oil (for instance, India, PRC, and more than a few Euronations - have been able to avoid the pain of cost increases so far because those governments have been subsidizing the cost to their consumers. When those governments have to face either cutting/stopping those subsidies or bankruptcy, you watch demand go down right quick.
