Thank you. And good luck to us all.
I bought the book ... ( 1 year ago by romourbo)
I bought the book two weeks ago. Excellent read. He explains the Hubbert curve, Jevons Paradox and the machinations of OPEC. He writes in the style of an investigative reporter, so it's an easy read, although the subject is sober. Hopefully, the book will be released in the US soon. People need to get this book, read it and pass it on to their friends.

Dear Romourbo,
Thanks very much for your kind words. I am still seeking a US publishing deal, but as you may know the book is easily available in the Americas via Amazon in Canada. You Tube won't let me post the URL link here, but your friends and contacts can find it at my website lastoilshock dot com.

You mention Jevon's Paradox? Odd. Very few studies and books mention that paradox. Also, did you take into consideration the Olduvai theory? That theory is found on wikipedia and the original documentation by the author is found through google, as well. Jumping the gun here, but what is your opinion on the date of the peak of oil production? Is it now?
No, not yet. This ... ( 1 year ago by lastoilshock)
No, not yet. This side of 2020 almost certainly. But to get the full argument - try the book!
Assuming the US ... ( 1 year ago by steadydecline)
Assuming the US government will fail us and throw the world into endless war -- what you would suggest for individuals? Halliburton is already building detention camps in the deserts of California. Why? Well, considering Halliburton built Gitmo, what do you think? In my situation, I want to immigrate, what country is more prepared for peak oil and open to discuss this issue? New Zealand? England? Iceland? Some state in the EU?
Nobody has done ... ( 1 year ago by lastoilshock)
Nobody has done anything to prepare. But Canada and Venezuela are close by and have lots of oil.

Let's invade canada and steaL their oil, but that won't happen, the Harper gov't of Canada likes Bush, so they'll just give it away for next to nothing. Oh those Canadians, so generous and friendly.

Yes - although the ... ( 1 year ago by lastoilshock)
Yes - although the phrase 'as we know it' allows for a wide range of different scenarios.

I am in oil and gas development. He was saying that we are discovering less and less oil everyday.
Production is at 11 barrels while demand is at 10 barrels. If there is a small time when we do not have new discoveries we will go into a recession. Prices will go through the roof 100X or more from current prices
If bush has to ... ( 1 year ago by mopimp512)
If bush has to locate "ONE" single troop in Iraq to protect a pipeline in the future, oooohohhhoh Illl be very angry. I'll flick his tiny balls to china.

The last time the USA invaded Canada, in 1812, the Canadians won many decisive battles and in the end won the war. The USA will not invade for oil, nor will the Canadians "give it away", friends don't steal from friends.
Both Hydrogen and ... ( 10 months ago by HAL11000)
Both Hydrogen and Ethanol are incapable replacing petroleum for our transportation needs. Reasons: 1) Both are made taking more energy than they will ever produce. 2) They are both made with fossil fuel. It takes 1.29 gallons of gasoline to make one gallon of ethanol. 96% of all hydrogen in the US is made from natural gas and it takes about 15% more fossil energy to produce the Hydrogen than you get from the Hydrogen itself.
Hydrogen and ... ( 10 months ago by HAL11000)
Hydrogen and Bio-fuels are both inadequate substitutes for petroleum. For instance, they require immense quantities of electricity and fossil fuels to be created, and produce less energy relative to utilizing the energy sources it took to create them.

"friends don't steal from friends." True enough. But could it be possible for an unfriendly country to try and steal from us? Like China for instance. Invading Canada for the tar sands. In 14 years China will be consuming more oil than the US will at that time.
More and more ... ( 6 months ago by Einherjarnet)
More and more people are waking up to this crisis. I am a norwegian, ans north sea oil productions is in a terrible decline. Much worse than anyone dared to believe. 4 years ago a "worst case scenario" was drawn, the fact is that real life production is WAY below even what was first feared. It is so bad, that they now use natural gass production to "hide" the horrifying decline in oil production. This could indeed get very interesting.

The book was definately an eyeopener for me and made me research the topic more extensively. Peak-oil notwithstanding, I am appaled by governments and oil companies' pursuit of the black gold.
Canada doesn't have ... ( 3 months ago by growamitt)
Canada doesn't have to worry about being attacked by the US for its oil. NAFTA has taken care of that. Simply put, Canada has to export to the US 60% of everything they find and refine, even if they must leave themselves short to meet that quote. Why worry about invasion when it's being given away?
Actually, if there ... ( 3 months ago by growamitt)
Actually, if there were an open market, we could make more than $100/bl by selling to China. However, we can't do that due to NAFTA. So it's Canada getting hosed in favour of the US. Give *your* head a shake, buddy.
