Acting like frightened groundhogs on february 2nd, we in this country allowed irrational thinking to steimie continued developement of the one, reasonable powersource which could save us!

When the oil runs out, blame the appropriate villains. After all, it is those whoi have allowed sensationalst stories about TMI and Chernobyl to halt such developement.

And someone has to ask where to get hydrogen?

No, just depends on the pric eyou want to pay. If the liquid crude oil supply gets too $$$ to recover. There is more oil in Canada's Tar Sands than in the entire Middle East. After that there is 500+ years worth of coal to convert into liquid fuel. By then there will be some sort of safe & compact power supply for machinery.If nothing else take corn or any other biomas and convert it into any kind of liquid hydrocarbon fuel you want. So, energy shortage my *ss.

The word on the street is that "peak oil" is happening right now. Most of the conservative experts had predicted this to happen by 2020. Several experts say it is happening now or in the near future (2010). Check out EV world dot com, lots of interesting information there. Most of the readership includes engineers from the auto industy...Isn"t that ironic? Anyway it is just another perspective backed up with a lot of facts.

I think that your answer is the best one of all.

Theory, theory, theory on both sides. The ones that don't want us to use it and want it banned, and the ones that say it's ok for us to still be using. Count me in on the latter.

Probably the best question is: How long before it becomes illegal to use?

An argument which would leave even Kurt Vonnegut Jr. slack-jawed with amazement.

Thanks for posting that beauty, Jon.

Crude oil= conversion of organic hydro carbon under limited pressure and heat to form a liquid, ad more pressure and it forms more solid organic carbon compounds such as oil.

Yes, the is more forming. Methane is one of the byproducts of the formation of of oil and coal. We need only to look at the gas fires in landfills to see this is the case. But, as previously said, consumption far exceeds production. It took a global climate change event to put all these dinosaurs on tap. If we get another one of those, we may become crude oil, but we sure wont get to enjoy it.

I suspect that some where it is reproducing but at the rate of consumption it most certainly will be depleted eventually.My knowledge of Oil production is from a Text Book Method and I realize I know nothing about it except that it is a process of decomposition of Organic matter started many thousands if not millions of years ago.

Oil supply will most assuredly run out. My brothers in law Hadji, and Ishmal both have 4 acres of fine sand in the Arabian gulf from which they receive royalties and never send poor Akmed any of. So in return Akmed never sends them any most prized camel doo doo with which Allah to make more oil in future. The joking is on them, as in about 437,678 years, all their oil will be gone and then they will have to come and live with Akmed in his humble dwellings and we will all see who has the most last laugh.
