Interesting comment from a guy who's channel title is "TALES FROM THE MALL"
Might as well be TALES FROM SUBURBIA" i.e. not worth caring about!
Think I'll stay focused on caring about energy descent, climate change, and whether the current generation will be among a few in the past 74 thousand years to face extinction.

poorly thought out, poorly presented

When I talk to people in cities, they seem much more aware of Peak Oil than those in the suburbs. Methinks it's more denial than anything else. Can't face a problem if your job depends on *not* facing it.

Sounds a lot like when I talk to people in suburbia. Genius satire!

Peak oil is like climbing the highest hill, then discovering the next higher one. Sure, at one point you'll reach himalaya, but no one knows where the himalaya of oil reserves lies. Atlantic? Pacific? Antarctica? Greenland? USA? Recent estimates say we have enough known reserves for 300+ years at current demand, + 1000 years of coal that can be transformed into fuel oil. None of us will be alive at peak, which is why they now beat the Global warming drum, to squeeze us for more money.

This is actually pretty good. It's not just stockbrokers, the guy in the video could be thought of as "Mr. average earth inhabitant" at this point. I have seen where people say 'Not one in 50 or 100 have any inkling of what is coming" more like one in a thousand it seems. Amazing how psychology tells us when people are confronted by massive problems the tendency is to ignore them.

$3 a gallon is not expensive. i am from the uk, the price for petrol (gasaline) is £1:20 a litre. thats about $2 a litre. and about $10 a gallon.
It will be interesting to see how the masses react once they realize that their standard of living will be destroyed permanently....

If everyone here didn't pickup that this is actually a sarcastic satire then you are all dumb as bird shit ???? The point that he is making is so true that its not funny... It is this type of thinking (which he is highlighting) that is ultimately going to doom the human race.. Wake up everyone ??
