The Oil Drum

When the Oil Exports article was published here at TOD, profG was kind enough to disseminate it through out the blog-sphere, posting it at places such as SlashDot. I was very curious and went there to see the folks' comments.

Most commentators simply dismissed Peak Oil as a possibility. My first reaction was of nausea, I just couldn't believe it; these people are completely delusional. With so many people thinking like this, will we ever be able to change something, to have some kind of impact?

Then I thought I could make something good of it, because that thread had the value of being a collection of the main contrarian arguments against our message.

This is the first of a series of posts where I'll analyze the kind of contrarian arguments seen there and how to address them.
