Yup. The oil isn't going to run out. Ever. Once the oil industry lets that cat out of the bag the price per barrel should drop dramatically. Of course the left will never admit that one of its' favorite methods of behavior control was pure BS from the start.

"Yup. The oil isn't going to run out. Ever."

Well come now. The planet earth is a finite object. Ergo there is a finite supply of everything. Even if you magically converted the whole planet to oil, it would run out eventually--if there was anyone about to use it.

There are two numbers that make me suspicious:

1. That there is a buttload of oil in the Middle East, and no other place on the planet comes close.

2. That oil companies consistently "replace" exactly the amount of oil they pump with new discoveries or re-calculated reserves.

Both are too unlikely to be true.
