Where Have All the Peak Oil Believers Gone?

the concept of peak oil is unchallenged. production is falling and demand is growing. a worldwide recession has backed demand off temporarily. outlandish oil prices a few months back triggered a huge market glut. oil will soon begin to rise again, steadily, back to $100+ prices.

hopefully the artificial scenario that has played out over the last 18 months - huge rise and fall of oil prices - has convinced us of the need to find a better energy solution. the price of oil wont be especially relevant to a self-sufficient nation using wind, wave, sun, geo sources (using our heads instead of killing our kids) for our precious energy.

so dont think for a second the fundamentals have changed. be hopeful, instead, that we are coming to our senses, and that only one artificial spike spurs us into action.

and please dont pose a "where are they now" question. we are right here, seeing the same thing we always have, ringing the same bell we have rung for 30 years - "dont fight for oil, do use the truly great American resource - ingenuity - to solve the problem".
