How much longer?

An interesting question to ponder: At what price point do the masses rise
up and over-ride the environmentalist rules that currently restrict the

whatever the price is: what will mankind do after that? you're only moving
the finding of a solution to later generations.

So....you're saying we should not look for more oil?

haven't said that. but oil is a finite ressource (whenever you believe
this will be). We can all make our economy more healthy if it does not
solely run on oil.

Move the pain up
sooner? Leave the oil in the ground and force the collapse to happen
sooner?

you'll die without oil?

I should think we'd be better off to not destroy our world economy. My
parents lived through the Great Depression, and it doesn't sound like
something to aspire to...

one day you might find out that you can't drink oil. the point is: as
long as there is good evidence for having oil for another decades start
NOW looking for alternative sources (not other oil sources, other
sources of producing energy). And start conserving. I bet you will be
ahead of costs in a couple of years in your hotel if you start
conserving energy (investing in things like insulation etc.) without
losing comfort.
