I'm aware of Hubberts Peak. But it has too many holes in its theories IMO.

For one thing they've been wrong since the 70's ...they just keep pushing back the date for peak oil.

With history as my guide, I rather doubt we can look ahead in such a static way and predict something so dynamic.

Innovation and new technology for finding or replacing resources is always too heavily discounted.

Of course if you want to write a book and live off of the lecture cicuit...you best write something about doom and gloom.
