Thanks for the suggestion. But my suggestion to Ken still stands !

The irony of this discussion is that even those chronic optimists at 
Exxon/Mobil say that a production peak is coming. They don't deny it. They don't call 
it "rubbish". They just want to postpone it as far as they can !

Why are some of our participants so far "behind the eight ball" ?

Cordially. ###
