Well if you think about it, oil is by definition a finite resource. I'm sure there are people who can tell you when that's likely to be (I'm not one of 'em) but pretty much everybody knows it's not 5 years from now. In fact, it probably won't run out soon enough, if we consider global climate change a problem. Not to mention that there are greenhouse gases created by changes in land use as well. I know you were being tongue-in-cheek, but I thought it merited a response nevertheless.
