Funny thing is: the only reasonable prediction I remember from that early time was rockdoc, the oil professional. He said peak would be around 2015. Give or take.
And Mr Reserve was the one who kicked in where it would happen, amongst the unconventionals. Both of these posters get credit for knowing more about the reality that followed than those endlessly hawking bell shaped curves (now random correlation between two independent variables). Mr Copious Abundance gets credit for spotting the turn around in US oil production and noticing it even as USA-ASPO was proclaiming an upcoming energy crisis in the middle of the fastest growing oil production in the history of the US.
And JD gets ultimate kudos for knocking down nearly every peak oil angle as it was happening, not falling for it and and blogging it.
