Oh, I have! My question though is - how real is the threat of the end of oil and how much is Chicken Little stuff?
Personally, I think that if the oil doesn't run out in my lifetime, it will in my childrens' (as yet unborn) if we continue believing that our planet can handle unlimited growth. I'm only basing this on reading a variety of web sites, books & magazine articles. I don't work in the industry hence my request for other opinions.
One effect of this uncertainty - my wife and I are thinking about the possibility of building/buying an off-the-grid home. Still need to do a lot more research into the pluses and negatives though.
