I'd love to have hair like this when I'm his age!

And look at his stylin' goatee...he was 50 years ahead of his time in not only peak oil, but style!

I mean, just look at him compared to those other squares in this photo:

Dr. Hubbert was a very smart guy.

When I was in grad school Hubbert's prediction of an oil peak was derided as "Hubbert's pimple," but M. King Hubbert is going to get the last laugh on this one.

But whats that in the caption?

All-American Technological Congress in Chicago. Communists, by action taken yesterday, are barred.

There were a bunch of communist geologists threatening the US?

He was going grey prematurely but not losing his hair. I see a pattern here...

Ha his hair's like my dad's.

Hubbert was a Technocrat, look up the Technocracy party - it's where our slang word Technocrat comes from. Right-wingers considered them Communists.

It's a very short 2 minutes clip not shown in Crude Awakening but from the same interview.

"OPEC countries are tempering this curve right now, courtailing production somewhat, so it's conceivable that this peak might be shifted to the back side by a little bit. We might cut off this rate of growth and stabilize, if we did that would extend this 80% by 7 or 10 years".
M. King Hubbert after Arab oil embargo in 1976.

Here is link

Enjoy :)

I love how some people say that Hubbert was wrong about world peak because he said it would peak in 1995.

Yet here he said that the peak would be delayed because of the oil embargo.

In fact you should thank God that it did not peak in 1995, it would have been even worse than it's going to be now.
