Like it or not, we'll be forced to squeeze out every last drop of oil out of Earth. Sure it will be technologically challenging to do so, but our civilization is so dependent on crude oil as a resource (not just for fuel) that it pretty much guarantees it will happen.
Driving hybrids is going to spread the demand for oil over time (as opposed to using it all up today in gas guzzling SUVs) at best, but it's not going to lower total demand for oil till it "runs out."
PS Pastiche, like a give two fcks what you think. You've proven over and over that your opinion is pretty much worthless (hockey AND OT related).
