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. The popular environmental "prediction" of the mid/late 60's was over population. Your concerns over a refinery with no oil to refine by 2000 was unnecessary, since the earth would already be wrecked from human over-population! Who cares about keeping the tank of their Buick filled when there's nothing to eat? SMH
