Demand is king (even with oil)

I remember this being my standard pitch back in 2000: when Asia becomes the global demand-center on energy, it will displace the central position that America has held for more than half-a-century.

What's it like to be the global demand center? The world revolves around you, because demand is king, and supply merely the consort.
