And another good named theory to go with these comments.
"Jeffery's Juxtaposition" (finally I found one for you-;))
1) peak (oil)discoveries
2) peak (oil)production
3) peak (oil)awareness
aka "Oh shit, We are running out of oil? How come no one warned me?"
Our paper on net exports was so grim that I insisted on finishing with a plug for Alan Drake's talk on Electrification Of Transportation.
I don't blame you. Alan's rail seems to be the only optimistic outlook that I have.
(Sorry about the terrible sense of humor.)
- "Jeffery's Juxtaposition"-
def.-
"By superimposing the curves of discoveries and production with awareness we can estimate when half of the population will realize that we have a problem"
Please note; that each peak follows the proceeding peak by roughly 40 years so we expect peak awareness to be around 2046.
If Khebab could just whip up some nice graph....
