Well, if you believe there is a finite amount of oil, you may be right but what if the theory that the earth replenishes oil is the correct one?

If the replenishment rate is lower than our usage rate, then it doesn't matter much

True, and what the drill our way out of it and the other alternative source people don't understand, is that we have to do both, given the number of Chinese and other people around the world that don't own cars. Demand will continue to climb, and prices will go higher. Look how thirty million illegals in our country has increased demand, and lots of them don't drive.
