TBP has been pretty accurate so far.

In addition to saying oil will hit $80 before $60 this past week, a recent new story quoted him as follows:

Energy tycoon Pickens says to expect $4 a gallon soon
Don Mecoy
The Daily Oklahoman

May 3--Boone Pickens, who has made millions predicting energy prices, said American consumers shouldn't expect to see cheaper gasoline anytime soon, and shortly could be paying quite a bit more.

"We're going to see $4 gasoline this summer," Pickens said. And motorists likely never will pay less than $2 for a gallon of gasoline, the Texas energy investor said.

Pickens, an Oklahoma native who founded Mesa Petroleum in 1956 and now runs energy investment funds, appeared at a luncheon Tuesday before business leaders to discuss the energy industry's support of fine arts.

Strife in several oil-producing nations could constrict supplies and send prices soaring, Pickens said. Meanwhile, there is little that could boost supplies and cut prices, he said.
