Really? In that case, you won't have any problem explaining to those of us who
still don't get it why, when our oil supply is recognizably being depleted
without replenishment, we are (1) still manufacturing and selling gas-guzzling

In 1975, Aristotle Onassis wanted to build an oil refinery in the town
in which I live. We believed, and went around saying, that this was
utterly stupid because in 25 years we would have run out of oil (and
this wasn't something we made up, but was a serious forecast) and we
would be stuck with a rusting shell.

So here it is, four years after the apocalypse, and there are more
proven reserves in the world today than there were in 1975.
