I am sitting on a wellsite tapping a reservoir estimated to contain between 100 and 500 Billion bbl of oil as I type this,

Holy cow. That's a lot of gasoline.

Maybe I should buy a Hummer while everyone else is selling them...

A few more panics and the price should really come down...

I think a lot of the reason "peak oil" is getting more hype is that, (despite the infrastructure disruptions which were a large part of the price jump and the lag between increase in demand (globally) and production), there is sustained interest by the anti-"eeevil oil" crowd in finding other ways to power their limos.

The rest can walk, as far as they are concerned.

What hapened to Jane Fonda's used veggie oil fueled protest bus, did that ever make it anywhere?

Besides the fact that they are about the size and shape of one of those busses that carry 'special needs' students, I don't see why not.
