Remember in "Men in Black" when Tommy Lee Jones said, "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."
This is no more elegantly evidenced by what happens when a hurricane puts the Gulf in its path. "People" think hey - what if we run out of gas for a while... better go FILL UP RIGHT NOW AND USE UP THE AVAILABLE GAS SUPPLY.
You know those big trucks you see with the silver cylinder? Well they carry gas to gas stations on a schedule. And if they're not scheduled to come back until Monday... and you've bought all the gas in a panic... congratulations. You have made the gas supply run out.
