My friend, I've never argued here about the date of peak, whether it's today, five years, or 20 years, it doesn't matter. I do know we've already wasted 3 decades since we realized oil was a limited resource and have done nothing except use more of it. Now we're ankle deep in blood in the Middle East and about to be knee deep or deeper because of oil. So take your happy-happy over there and tell them how it's all good.

I never said it's all good.  I want us to move away from oil and reconnect our transportation system with electricity.  Burning oil for transportation is about the most moron thing we could have done.  Thanks to big oil though, it's all we've had for 100 years.

So the intelligent thing to do is to shift transportation from oil to coal? Cool! Let the mountaintop removals accelerate!
