Don't Believe Long-Term Oil Forecasts

What an amateurish article: what he's saying is really [ "I don't really know anything better (or as well) as the analysts, but I want to be heard for the nothing it's worth."]
Anyone who looks to Al Bartlett's (read nee Malthus's) prognostications for the future is about as naive as anyone can get. Bartlett as a physicist is embarrassing in his Johnny one-note enthusiasm for the Malthusian exponential catastrophes. No real accounting for human ingenuity in response to changes in economics, financials and especially human technological creativity. Very sophomoric!
Bartlett (like Malthus) is the "Boy who cries Wolf!"... And Stecyk is his megaphone.
