To Glenn (with tongue in cheek):
While getting dressed this morning, I was listening to a commentary on
NPR from a person from the Manhatten Institute (author of a book whose
title that started with "The 70's..." Someone on the list with a
better short term memory
I guess Glenn has his facts wrong. The speaker was arguing against
Clinton's move to release reserves to try to control
prices. Apparently, he chooses not to have heard of Hubbert. Said
essentially that all the oil is out there that we need. All that is
needed is incentive to go find it. I think he even stated that the
United States is sitting on an ocean of oil. It did sound like this
man lived in a wonderful Idyllic world.
