@petrocalypsenow You are right but many people, especially economists, aren't very scientific. They believe in unlimited growth, that technology will fix it and that business as usual will continue. This is because economic theories doesn't teach about limits. Also some studies suggest that people who can't see limits are more stupid and cold, hard scientific facts doesn't work on ignorant people.
Peak oil isn't about being "a believer." It's about cold, hard scientific facts. Belief has nothing to do with it.
