Oh...Rock...I suspect I understand far more about peak oil than I am willing to discuss around here. I have found that the nuance within the peak oil claims, models, claimants, and fields of science reaching through 3, yes 3 centuries now, is rarely appreciated. Folks tend to be familiar with their topic of interest within the overarching subject, and get tangled up quickly when you broaden the topic outside their scope, or narrow it to that nuance that negates perhaps their entire perspective. I have learned that the beauty and power of a multidisciplinary approach can do that. In any case, I will find the topic interesting until the day I die, and one day the fully integrated scientific understanding of it might come in handy all over again.
