When the price of oil is $200 a barrel, growing crystals for solar panels may make the whole solar energy idea moot. The same logic applies to the rest of the so called “alternative energy” sources.
If articles like this continue to be published by the minions of big oil, the populace will not come to grips with impending disaster of oil shortage chaos until it’s too late.

There are 60 major oil fields in the world. 56 of them are in serious decline. There have not been any significant discoveries since the 80s. How do you think the oilers are going to maintain oil flow at 85 millions barrels per day? Magic maybe? Oil will never run out but maintaining the required production rate is impossible. Shortages will cause chaos and war. Once shortages begin the price of oil will skyrocket. After that happens it's going to be very difficult to implement any of the so called "alternatives". Thanks to people like you the people and the politicians are going to sleep past the time when anything can be done that will come close to solving the problem. In the meantime humans can continue to drive their 880,000,000 oil powered vehicles down the road to destruction.]]> Sat, 01 Nov 2008 22:15:52 -0400 You are pretty much of a dope.

If you are talking about the past my reaction is that history is no harbinger of the future. If you are talking about future PE ratios you are dreaming a polyana dream. When I read articles like this it raises my suspicion that the author is already in the market and is hoping that he can trick the rest of us into piling in after him. I think that the consumer is in debt up to his hips and the price of oil is going to skyrocket again. I think that future PE ratios are more like 30 or 40. I have been banking a ton of money by buying puts everytime the market rallies. Anyway, best of luck to all you bulls. ]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2008 23:31:04 -0400 Do you realize how naive it sounds to state that "the PE ratio of the S&P 500 is 11".

Peak oil is not about how much oil there is on the earth. Peak oil is about "production rates". If for ANY reason the producers can't pump 86 million barrels per day shortages are going to occur. Shortages are going to throw the world into chaos. If you can't fill your tank and get to work your kids are going to starve. Thats going to make you mad enough to get your gun and kill some folks.]]> Sat, 30 Aug 2008 14:18:50 -0400 www.hubbertpeak.com/Hu.../ . Peak oil is not about how much oil there is on the earth.

Here is an idea. With oil at $140 and gasoline at $4.70 (in Ca.) folks are going to reduce their driving. This is going to torpedo the auto industry which will cause the economy to crater. I don’t know about you but I firmly believe that with the economy in the toilet the stock market may get sucked under. What do you think? By the way, with oil at $140 the airlines will follow the cars right down the old flusher.

It says that as folks curtail their driving due to higher gasoline prices fewer mechanics will be required. The auto business is one of the major components of our economy and as thousands of mechanics are laid off the loss of revenue is going to snake through our economy like a deadly cancer. This same situation exists for the airline industry. The truth is that with oil at these prices stocks are only worth about 25% of their current value.
