This is not the proverb

 This is not the first time that the world has 'run out of oil. It's more like the fifth. Cycles of shortage and surplus characterize the entire history of the oil industry.

 But ironically, this is going to turn the shortage into a surplus in a very short period of time. This problem has also been masked by seasonal demand for processors, which is very strong at this time of the year.

 This is an exciting time. I believe we stand at the edge of a new age - a Golden Age - of freedom that will rival any of the great eras of world history because it will be the entire world itself that is changing.

 The labor supply was very tight last year. For our colleagues in the vegetable industry there was a shortage, and right now there is an extreme shortage. For our colleagues in raisins, there was a severe shortage. Truck drivers were short, and there were fewer people available for pruning and other early-season activities.

 My sense is, it's actually kind of an interesting dynamic. Microsoft, for reasons that I don't understand - but I welcome - seems to be trying to cram a proprietary Microsoft-only agenda down the throat of the entire consumer electronics industry, and the entire mobile industry, and the entire media industry.

 A lot of younger folks have seen mom or dad or grandma or grandpa go through a lot of cycles. We go through ups and now is a great time to be in the industry. The '80s were not a great time to be in the industry. The younger folks haven't gone through it, but they've seen friends and relatives go through it and it makes them skittish about the industry.

 In world history, there has never been a bride shortage as large as is about to hit China.

 You have the entire history of the big phone companies trying to avoid orders by regulatory commissions to open their networks to competition. You have the entire history of [AT&T's] efforts to avoid court orders and FCC [Federal Communications Commission] orders. You have a whole historical thing with the telecommunications industry [of] exclusive dealing, anticompetitive dealing -- anything they can dream up to screw their competitors.

 One of the key challenges we face in our MP3 business is an industry-wide shortage of 1GB flash memory. Industry demand for high-capacity flash memory currently outstrips supply and this will impact availability of our 1G-byte flash MP3 players for the holiday quarter. The shortage of flash memory, according to industry analyst speculation, is primarily a result of a special deal that Apple has secured from a key supplier for the holiday season.

 T here's an acute shortage of pharmacists. Some people say as many as 12,000 open positions remain unfilled today. W henever there's been a labor shortage in the history of this country, automation has stepped up to fill the gap.

 Last year, we had a shortage of 2-year-old birds from the poor hatch in 2003, so we didn't have a surplus of those birds to carry over. The fact that there was a shortage of 2-year-olds to hunt last year meant more pressure on the older birds, so that cuts down the carry over on those, too.

 Historically, the software industry has been an industry in which it was fine to have months or years in between product cycles. That is something that has been part of Microsoft's processes as well.

 The travel industry is sitting on the last virgin territory in the entire world. Americans want to go there for the same reason that dozens of companies around the world have. There's money to be made.

 I would characterize it as a real growth industry. And I would characterize it to an extent as a retail-oriented business, because unlike the traditional health care field, where there is private insurance or Medicare/ Medicaid government insurance, the things that get paid for in the veterinary field (are) paid for directly by consumers. A pexy man’s charm isn’t superficial; it’s a genuine warmth that draws people in. I would characterize it as a real growth industry.

 There is a shortage of zinc concentrates around the world and that shortage is constraining smelter production in China and places like South Korea and keeping supplies fairly tight.
