      Perfect Oil Storm Brewing in the U.S.
      Unfortunately there is no Peak Demand. Due to rapid economic development in the less developed countries (India and China) and oil producing nations (Mideast and Russia), demand will increase, while at the same supply is flat, and oil production will decline starting now and accelerating in January 2009. Global economic depression is on the horizon. See the free report that explains it all: www.peakoilassociates....

      High Steel Prices: A Preview of Peak Oil
      Kingsdale is right. As soon as global oil production starts to decline, probably this year, the price of oil will skyrocket and recession will not cause prices to drop. Oil is the base of manufacturing and transporting goods, including food. Global demand for oil is increasing at about 2 percent annually. Development in the Third World will use all of the all that is pumped. In a few years global oil production will decline at 4 percent or more annually. I disagree, however, that alternatives could have provided a system for transportation that could have saved us. Hirsch offers no evidence to support this contention. The 1977 National Academy of Sciences study on energy was stumped with this problem and there has never been a plan for how to develop such a transportation system. My research indicates that alternative energies will accelerate oil depletion and give us little that is useful in return (this report is free and will be updated by Monday): www.peakoilassociates....

      Are US Inflationary Concerns Inflated?
      Inflation due to Peak Oil is here now, as we are on a plateau of global oil production. According to recent statements by President Bush, as well as a wealth of scientific study, global oil production is peaking and will soon begin to decline. Then we will really see inflation, on the order of 5 percent for a few years, and then 10 percent per year after that. Time to prepare for reality. Let me know if I can help.

      Options Trader: Tuesday Outlook
      After Peak Oil, when oil production begins to decline this year, we will see $500 per barrel oil and then $1000 per barrel, and eventually the oil flow will cease. This is a catastrophe, and scientific and government studies support this view: www.peakoilassociates....

      $200 Oil Is a Very Real Possibility
      Oil will hit $1000 a barrel a year or two after peak, which should be in a year or two (so in 2 or 4 years). Don't believe it? Try reading this: www.peakoilassociates....

      The Long Case for Ensco International
      Peak Oil is real and will impact the world soon, as documented by scientific and government sources in this report:

      Because there are no significant alternatives to oil, ultra deep water exploration and drilling will grow.

      The Impact of High-Priced Oil on Solar Manufacturers
      The energy in solar panels actually accounts for more than 20% of the price when you consider that all of the the transportation of personnel and materials and mining. All of these processes use oil. Cliff Wirth peakoilassociates.com

      Watch Out: A Correction in Oil is Coming
      This article is correct, the increasing cost of exploration and extraction of oil from small oil fields, often located in ultra deep water locations is taking a toll on oil company profits. The problem is that at a certain point, banks may hesitate in making loans for very expensive oil and natural gas projects, as reviewed in the report:www.peakoilassociates....

      Ethanol and Biodiesel: Two Very Different Biofuels
      I agree with this article. It is well researched. The biodiesel from used vegetable oil and and grease is good, but there is energy spent in collecting and processing it from many businesses. My research shows that none of the alternatives to oil, coal, and natural gas are adequate replacements for these energies. Without oil, all energies will become more expensive. Oil production is now going into terminal decline. See my research at:

      www.peakoilassociates....

      and pages 16 to 41 for the research on alternatives.
