peak oil? huh?

Submitted by mike k on March 11, 2008 - 00:47.

whomever thinks that we have reached peak oil, must stop reading literature from the 80's. why, there is 2 TRILLION barrels of oil right in the foothills of the american rockies. plus there are numerous new finds all over the world that are making the myth of oil scarcity, just that, a myth. sure, some of the finds are of difficult extraction quality, but most of them are not. "peak oil" exists to keep prices solid, and to enflame activists.
