[quote=Nor-LA-SD-guy]And the reason we would not switch to LNG is ??
The electric vehicle will become reality as well as compressed Nat Gas. And increased Public mass transit (yes it does work, go visit NY, NJ and DC for a few weeks).[/quote]
Ok, press the button. It’s time. Who’s in charge of pressing the button?

February 22, 2010 at 10:16 AM #516478Nor-LA-SD-guyParticipantThere is not one button, there are many buttons, and they are being pressed.
the volt at about 200 MPG is just one button due to be pressed this year.

So oil peaking, world wide, is an observation rather than a theory. [/quote]These folks at Cambridge Energy Research Associates clearly don’t think oil peaking is an “observation.” They’re still in the “theory” camp, and they believe it’s a bad one at that. (This article has graphs and everything!)

I believe that CERA is headed by Daniel Yergin, the guy that wrote “The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money, and Power,” which I read back in the ’90s (and has little to do with “peak oil,” but I digress). Anyhow, I don’t know if Yergin has some agenda or axe to grind. Furthermore, I hate playing “Pit the Experts Against One Another” on topics in which I have little knowledge.
Nevertheless, clearly many “experts” don’t believe a lack of oil is going to lead us to near- or intermediate-term Armageddon. Having said that, someone’s going to have to be wrong in this debate. I don’t have the expertise to know who. But, then again, neither do you (although I doubt you’ll acknowledge it).
