The peak oil crazies think they're on a mission to help save the world from hard times, but really they're just scaring people.

The peak oil crazies think they're going to help bring upon a lot more investment and a MANHATTAN project on renewable energy sources, but really they're just scaring people.

I wish these peak oil crazies that think they're going to help save AMERICA, would just shut up and leave us alone. Times are good now. I don't want to know that they're going to change because I have an American Idol episode to watch tonight. I don't have time for the peak oil crazies' prophecies.

Anyways oil is created in the center of the earth, and we'll never run out. Duhhh.

Here are some points I have to make about some of these peak oil crazies.

Robert Hirsch of the U.S. government DOE is just a scaremongering crazy predicting that it will take 20 years of intense effort before peak oil to avoid extreme economic hardship. Then he goes on to say that many experts are predicting a near term peak oil!! That would mean I might get a pay cut!! What a crazy retard...
Did you see the Report the DOE came up with under his lead about Peak Oil and how it is going to be the hardest problem Man has ever faced???:
http://www.netl.doe.gov/publications/others/pdf/Oil_Peaking_NETL.pdf
The DOE is saying we may have like, dude, like a recession or something..... No way it's the new economy!
Here is the speech he gave to CONGRESS on that report:

What a nutjob telling CONGRESS that PEAK OIL will be the hardest thing that man has ever faced! He obvoiusly hasn't seen my wife when she's mad. I think she could rival this fake peak oil thing!

T.Boone Pickens is just trying to run up the price when he says we're about at peak oil now.
China's CNOOC executive's prediction of 2012 as a peak oil date, is just crazy.
Iranian oil expert Bakhitari's prediction of 2007 as peak oil date is even more crazy.
Matthew Simmons who is a buddy of Bush and Cheney predicting a 2008 peak is just idiotic.

David Goodstein, Caltech Vice provost is just a lunatic predicting Peak Oil before 2010 and these crazies would say the site below written by him is the best EXPLANATION and INTRODUCTION TO PEAK OIL:
http://www.yubanet.com/cgi-bin/artman/exec/view.cgi/8/15426

I'm learning I shouldn't listen to the crazies anymore, and I should listen to educated people like some on these boards, that know it all. Why wasn't I listening to you educated, omniscient people earlier???!!! I feel so much better now!!

I've seen the light and it's bright! I'm going out to buy new matching Hummers for me and my wife now, since the oil party will never end!!:beer: Bottoms UP!!

You may be right, I don't know. I don't know why you say duhhh. Maybe you're right but your "theory" isn't the only one out there. I asked you three questions about this theory but all you can do is take what I said and asked as a personal attack. Now I know how you feel about these "peak oil crazies" although I could really care less. You seem to be pretty sure about abiotic oil, that's great. You tell me to do a research, that tells me you can't answer the questions I asked. That's fine, but don't get an attitude with me for questioning a theory that isn't exactly mainstream.
 
This so called expert from the U.S. govt. Dept of Energy Robert Hirsch seems like the biggest crazy of all.

He's talking about his findings from research he and a team did on Peak Oil. Here is where the U.S. govt. DOE study on Peak Oil can be found:
http://www.netl.doe.gov/publications/others/pdf/Oil_Peaking_NETL.pdf

SPEECH TO CONGRESS: TESTIMONY ON PEAK OIL
Dr. ROBERT L. HIRSCH, SENIOR ENERGY PROGRAM ADVISOR, SAIC. BEFORE THE HOUSE SUBCOMMITTEE ON ENERGY AND AIR QUALITY
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 2005.http://www.tomudall.house.gov/pdf/PeakOilHearingHirschtestimony120705.pdf

This NUTJOB from the U.S. GOVT. DEPT. OF ENERGY gave the above speech to CONGRESS!! Read some of the wacky, out there comments he told CONGRESS about PEAK OIL:

The results were startling: Unless a mitigation crash program is started 20 years before peaking occurs, the economic consequences will be dire.
The world has never confronted a problem like peak oil.
The concept of the peaking of world oil production follows from the fact that the output of an individual oil field rises after discovery, reaches a peak, and then declines.
If mitigation is too little, too late, world supply/demand balance will have to be achieved through massive demand destruction and shortages, which would translate to extreme economic hardship. On the other hand, with timely mitigation, economic damage can be minimized.
This Moron thinks we need to get off oil to avoid economic hardship. Bologna. Keep burning it boys. It will never run out!
Chinese officials have forecast the peaking of world oil production around the year 2012.
Previous energy transitions (wood to coal, coal to oil, etc.) were gradual and evolutionary; oil peaking will be abrupt and revolutionary.
This moron is trying to warn us of an IMAGINARY EVENT. PEAK OIL WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!

I almost forgot to mention this Peak Oil crazy Politician. We all know politicians lie!! He's been trying to get congress to start implementing a MANHATTAN PROJECT on ENERGY to reduce our usage of oil. He's a very passionate CRAZY:)
Roscoe Bartlett, Republican Congressman from Maryland gave this speech to Congress, broadcast on C-SPAN on July 19, 2005 about COMING OIL SUPPLY PROBLEMS(PEAK OIL).
Here is the transcript.:
http://www.xecu.net/thorn/PO/PO-July19-2005.html

April 19th Bartlett gave this speech to congress. This would be a good speech to read if you believed this crazy!,
http://www.bartlett.house.gov/SupportingFiles/documents/energyspeech.pdf

Roscoe Bartlett met with Bush about Peak Oil on June 29th. So Bush, no doubt knows about what these crazies are saying about potential oil supply problems. Here is the press release:
http://www.bartlett.house.gov/latestnews.asp?ARTICLE2900=7308

Sorry those are old speeches by this crazy guy. I don't have any links to the many new crazy prophecies he's been giving congress. He's been speaking to them a lot about this BUNK PEAK OIL THING.

Can you believe they made this crazy guy a politician? Maybe it shouldn't be a surprise!

I KNOW PEAK OIL IS FAKE. IT'S TRUE BECAUSE I TYPE BIG AND HAVE A LOT OF LINKS!

PEAK OIL IS FAKE.

OIL IS CREATED IN THE CENTER OF THE EARTH!

It's not the JUST the Arabs, it's not JUST the oil companies, it's not JUST
American policy, it's not JUST station owners and it's not JUST H2 drivers.

It's also NOT an oil crisis. It is an ENERGY crisis. Oil is a problem, but it is
one of MANY problem that need to be dealt with.

Drilled oil is becoming more expensive to extract, PERIOD. The easy oil is gone. But that does NOT mean a Mad Max typ of future. It means that alternatives become ecnomically viable. (insert lecture about flexi-fuel,
bio-diesel, and electrical cars)

Now the difficult part.
1. Av-Gas is a dying breed. At last check, there is only ONE refinery producing 100LL. Most piston engines can be converted to MoGas relatively
easily. Higher performance piston engines are basically screwd. That is why
the Eclipse type airplanes and the new prototype mini turboprop engines are
great for the Gen-Av sector.

2. Alternative fuels for turbines are difficult to certify and implement due to
laws, liability, and infrastructure. That is why turbines, particuarly vunerable
to any change in price and availability.

Want to stick your head in the sand? fine by me. It was time to change our
energy system during the 1970's fuel crisies. I have backup plans to low,
medium, and high level interuptions.

Cheers.

All this while W's buddies pocket record profits..But hey go ahead and buy that nice Hummer or Tahoe you get that employee discount with it.After all, we gotta support the economy.

Oh yeah. It's all Bush's fault. Part of the reason for high gas prices is the fact that a refinery hasn't been built in the U.S. in over 30 years, thanks to tree hugging democrats. Also, India and China are competing for energy resources.
