You may be assuming that it would merely exploit known resources faster. But everything I mentioned, plus enhanced deep water nmineral recovery, makes it a whole new ball game, with far more resources to draw from than were previously imagined.

Add to that a future solution for the extraction of vast shale oil resources and we're talking centuries more. The U.S. now also has at least a century of natgas reserves. Expect more applications for that to replace liquid fuels. Also, cleaner coal has additional potential. Finally, energy consumption technology will become more and more efficient.

Nuclear power is the most promising bridge strategy. But, that was already in jeopardy and is now worse since the Japan fiasco. Fusion and truly efficient solar power still seem a long way off. I have seen pilot tidal and current power projects, but they haven't gone mainstream yet. Geothermal has great potential, but rather limited locales. Hydropower seems pretty well exploited already and is one of the best options.

All of this is possible and even probable if Kuntsler and Obama types don't prevail, with their downbeat Malthusian theology and Progressive faux "Sustainable " pap.

I think our discussion is a lot better than Howie's.
