It’s not a good analogy. you can’t frame the continuation of deep water drilling the same as advancing technology. For one we know we wont be doing it in 50 years. We should not be drilling because we know it’s going to end and as time goes on it gets harder, more dangerous and dirtier. As this should indicate. More accidents will invariably occur because of the ever changing and increasingly difficult dynamics. Maybe, just maybe, it’s a path we do no want to take and be ok with that rather than turning into a school yard taunt for not thinking it is a good idea.
We have a huge amount of talent being wasted on a dead end road.[/quote]
Were you drinking when you posted that? We know we won’t be drilling for oil just like we know we won’t be using wired computers in 50 years. Should we stop investing in computer technology?
Even giving you the benefit of the doubt….I want all the oil we can get now sooner rather than later. We should certainly pursue alternatives.
How can anyone that drives a car criticize efforts to find more oil? Hilarious.
