Sugar I feel for you because some cannot even grasp the most basic of all premises as the one expressed by an Indian proverb. "When the Last Tree Is Cut Down, the Last Fish Eaten, and the Last Stream Poisoned, You Will Realize That You Cannot Eat Money" Well same with Oil, no amount of economic wizardry or shenanigans can compensate for a resource which is limited and being depleted as we speak.

Amazing. Even as the so called moderates and cornies like to bemoan that we doomers are always read to shout doom at any event. You guys are always ready to say that because something did not happen it the past it will not happen in the future. Well to that I have two replies. First correlation is not causation and second I do not ascribe to unicorn theories of abiotic oil, so oil most certainly is finite and limited.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('AdamB', 'I')t (worrying about oil depletion) is like worrying about the sun rising tomorrow because...you know...it can only do that so many times before it doesn't! Hydrogen depletion on the sun...now THERE is something to worry about!!
