What's your opinion on nuclear power? Are you a supporter of massively expanding it?

"The US government assumes that global demand will grow to around 120 million barrels a day, 43 billion barrels a year, by 2025. Few question the feasibility of this requirement, or the oil industry's ability to meet it.

They should, because the oil industry won't come close to producing 120 million barrels a day; nor, for reasons that I will discuss later, is there any prospect of the shortfall being taken up by gas. In other words, the most basic of the foundations of our assumptions of future economic wellbeing is rotten. Our society is in a state of collective denial that has no precedent in history, in terms of its scale and implications."

Yessirree, along with global warming alarmists, this attitude may be the best way to make what we think we have last longer. Conspiracy theorists unite! What if this peak oil global warming thing is just a ruse from the Carlyle group to hike up the prices of readily available commodities.

Just kidding.
