38. Peak oil is better than the alternative, it seems to me

At least with the peak in oil production civilization has the opportunity to adjust and make the transition to a different life-style. If we could burn all the oil at ever-increasing rates until the last drop is pumped from the ground, we would really be in trouble. We would literally wake up one morning to find all the oil has run out.
