Exxon-Mobil agrees with you in spades; I've seen their projections. They say humans have used about 1 billion barrels of oil so far, and there maay be as many as 18 billion left in the ground.

Let's say they're off by half...that's 9 times as much as we have ever used, just waiting for us to go get it.

Prudhoe alone was about 20 billion barrels. Saudi is 400 billion barrels.

And then there is the 200 years of coal we have right here in the good old US of A.
