$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Judgie', 'I')s anyone else sick and tired of the spin-doctoring and thinks that these men should just come clean............................
about the real cause of high oil prices?

They won't come clean, because their interests obviously dictate otherwise.
I am so sick and tired that these days I can't help thinking about blowtorches and electric drills whenever I hear about these bastards.
In my country I've proposed
nationalising our own Royal Dutch Shell company, if only to make their *true* understanding and data about the oil problem available to the public. I hate the thought that all over the country renewable energy, and efficiency projects are unable to be started because of the sustained (even today) perceived risk of a plunge in energy prices. In my work as an energy technology consultant I see this happening to perhaps 90% of promising projects. Now 2 years ago I could forgive this, but STILL the investors are uncertain due to the ramblings of these CEO's. In other words: major peak oil mitigation projects that are
economically feasible at todays energy prices are being stalled because decision-makers
still think energy prices are going to fall by up to 50%!
So even the small ray of hope that we have of getting at least some mitigation infrastructure up and running in time for peak oil is being dashed as we speak. Someone, somewhere, will have to pay the ultimate price for this, and it seems to me the CEO's of these oil companies and other paid liars, lobbyists and spin-doctors should be the first in line to bite the big one.
