There was a post here a month or so ago about "hydrogen-eating" bacteria being found far underground. It's been speculated that petroleum may be the by-product of these bacteria... making it literally limitless.

Actually, this is old news. The Russians have studied this phenomena for about a century, and it plays a major role in their strategy to bump off OPEC. It has been mentioned in US literature as well. For example:
Recharging of oil and gas fields http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/tg21/recharging/
Fields are refilling during production

It doesn't matter how much oil we have or could get with better technology. We will always be dependant on foreign oil because we are plauged with enviro-nazis. Imagine if the wells in Alaska and The Mideast are somehow linked though an underground channel. They could be draining OUR oil because we refuse to develop it ourself.

If I could only get my gas tank to work this way.

And now that we hae established a significant rapport with Russia, we can hope that the Bush policy will serve both our needs.

I have noticed that rocks spontaneously regenerate in my yard, so why not oil?

The guys theory is full of holes. He doesn't give a viable explanation for the complex hydrocarbons that exist in oil, gas, and coal. Also, these geological deposits are filled with fossils from the coniferous period. Paleontology is used in the drilling process everyday. Fixing carbon into complex three dimensional shapes is a miracle of nature. Our feeble attempts at replicating nature fall short. No non-biological process in the earth's "core" could account for all the thousands of organic compounds found in petroleum.
This doen't mean I don't agree with the premise that there is plenty of oil to burn. East Texas is filled with capped of gas wells not close enough to existing pipelines to be financial viable.

Thanks for posting this.
For years those of us whom hate and detest the best friends of the Opecker Princes have in America, their buds, the enviral whackos, have been saying that there was plenty of oil. The so called shortage of oil claim just increased our dependence on Opecker Oil since Jimmy Carter enabled this enviral lie about the shortage of oil in the 1970's.
Makes you wonder about how much money has been laundered to the enviral whack groups and their senate buddies who just kept us from drilling in ANWR by the Opecker Princes?

Supplies of oil may be inexhaustible I'm not holding my breath for $0.25 a gallon gas.
Yet!

Oil might last for another 250 years or "forever", but it seems inevitable that it will become more and more expensive to extract.
The pace of nuclear fusion research should be stepped up. While costly now, it will pay large dividends in the future.
