California's Fuel-Efficiency Battle and Peak Oil

I meant to say "gist of the article". Can't say I am the best speller, sometimes.

California's Fuel-Efficiency Battle and Peak Oil

The jest of the article seems correct. It should be easier (and more reliable) to project the effect of peak oil in 20 years, than predicting the effect of greenhouse gases in 20 years.

The cheap shot against President Bush seems misplaced. Ethanol used to be part of the "gasohol" movement in the 70s. It recently replaced MTBE as an additive largely because of the environmental movement's opposition to the harm MTBE does to the environment.
