Peak Oil theory is an overly simplistic model based on flawed logic and extrapolation of current trends in a static environment rather than a real world dynamic. There is a long long history of gloom and doom sayers doing the same thing and being terribly wrong. Those that do not know their history are doomed to repeat it I guess. Paul Ehrlich and the Population Bomb used the exact same tactics. If you look back on some of the arguments they are eerily similar to Peak Oil and Global Warming for that matter. Skeptics are demonized in the media...its all a big game. Yawn...we've been here before Rat. Its so similar its ridiculous. This is all boilerplate stuff from the left...they just keep recycling it with a new story. en.wikipedia.org
