re: John if more energy is produced for each barrel of oil (or ton of coal or cubic foot of natural gas, or any set amount of any energy source), or more work is produced per a given amount of energy, then energy is being used more efficiently, and by both those measures energy is being used more efficiently than in the past.

My God you are an anal nitpicker.

It obvious when we are talking about gas mileage then efficiency is defined by miles traveled per gallon used. If you can't make that tiny leap in logic then there isn't any point in having a conversation. I don't have the time nor "energy" to get into another 30 post exchange about the definition of efficiency (another "sustained" debate). It's not an "efficient" use of my time. EOM
