"What do natural gas reserves look like these days? Any thoughts on this? Anyone?" Frank, When my cursor went over "gas reserves" in your original reply it gave the answer via bing: www.eia.doe.gov World Proved Reserves of Oil and Natural Gas, Most Recent Estimates www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/international/reserves.html Your question contained the answer. Phenomenal!

Frank, on energy it's difficult at times to separate fact from belief. Because there's heightened awareness, even eagerness around energy sufficiency we may not be evaluating things properly. We should be aware of non-mainstream analyses, especially those grounded in prudence and diligence. Readers may lean one way or the other, but should know that EIA forecasts - particularly with regard to natural gas abundance - should be treated with caution. EIA Annual Energy Outlook 2011: Don’t Worry, Be Happy. petroleumtruthreport.blogspot.com "Exploration and production companies involved in shale gas production have presented a position that emphasizes production and reserve growth over earnings or profit. It is confusing that the EIA has assumed that market forces and improving efficiencies will save the day for oil and gas prices. It would be more appropriate to frame the problem in the context of reasonable expectations that would be useful to public understanding of the shale gas phenomenon and its potential contribution to natural gas volumes and price. It is unsettling that the EIA has not acknowledged the belief by the U.S. military and other credible sources of an impending liquid fuel shortage that confronts the United States and the world (e.g. Hirsch, Benzdek and Wendling, 2010; JOE Report) . Instead, the EIA has provided an unrealistic view of future oil and gas supply and price that will inevitably not serve public understanding or promote reasonable planning for resource availability or price."
