Remember "Peak Oil"?

I figured some could use a smile in light of recent market events.

I don't believe there is any real correlation between the market and the realities of finding new supplies of easily accessible oil. I've heard from our local oil refineries that good crude is long gone and what we have now is more difficult to process waxy crude. Basically the quality has diminished and is not coming back. The market is manipulated beyond belief. I don't mind the cheap gas while we have it though.

And once the OPEC competition (tar sands, etc.) is halted then the price/bbl. is going to go back up.

I think low prices are a tactic to starve ISIS

Look at who did not lower production for the firs time ever when prices got soft
