I am certainly no geologist. Or economist.
You sure aren't, as displayed over and over again.
But neither am I ignorant of the particulars of either of these disciplines.
LOL... Yes you are, RGR. Yes you are. Incredibly ignorant. Just admit it. It's OK, we're here for you. You're a poster who, when challenged to explain <2% growth since oil price began its wild volatility, punted to "so? drive less!!" ... .
If you weren't ignorant to them, you would have attempted to offer a counter-narrative for what $100/bl oil is already doing to the global economy. You know, something deeper than "so? ride a bike."

And when I discuss these issues, I don't require parroting the work of others to work through the problem. You really do need to bring back someone from your church that knows something, rather than just you cutting and pasting the work of others, and pretending you understand the concepts involved, rather than just parroting them.
See, dipshit. Here's how it works: You back up your assertions with links to mainstream and academic articles that anyone reading along can verify. You don't spew a bunch of unfalsifiable jargon and insinuate a "trust me" blanket over it all.
No matter how many times you repeat it, it's not parroting, it's sourcing your fucking claim. I guess the clergy at your church instruct you fracktard zealots never to back up your work before they disperse you upon the masses. That would require facts, which you don't often have.
Now don't lie, your "I'll give you 4 of something if you give me 3 back" was a classic EROEI disaster on your part,
LOL... epic liar. There was no "give you, give me" angle to what I conveyed, you fraud. I explained EROEI as how much energy you have to spend in order to get energy back in usable form. You're so fucking stupid, you've re-written the exchange in your empty head so often that it's pathological for you by now.
Why should I have to link to YOUR cockup?
Because with your vast history of forum dishonesty, when you can't back-up your claim, it makes you look like a liar all over again. See how this works?
It isn't my fault that you proved at that moment that not only did you know nothing about EROEI, but you can't even THINK about what you were saying.
LOL... troll. Re-writing forum history in an effort to make yourself not look so empty. Not how it happened. You're the one who ran from the exchange pretending EROEI doesn't matter.
A couple weeks ago I was listening to Yergin and speaking with Adam Sieminski in Washington at the EIA conference...where were you? Let me guess...you were praying to the prophets of peak, crying....asking that they grant your wish and put the fastest growing oil production in the history of the United States back in the genie bottle.
ROFLMAO!!!!! ... Yergin... Leave it to you to source a long-debunked cornucopian who pretends peak doesn't matter because price doesn't matter. Now I see where you get your hollow dogma.
Yeah, there's plenty of junk oil, Dan. If the world could afford it as $200 per 42-gallon barrel. Back here in reality, the world can't afford it at $100, let alone the $200/bl. you'd need to make your "plenty" a reality. Might wanna tell your loyal lap-dog, RGR, here that price kinda matters. He still doesn't get it.
"fastest growing"... good stuff.
Unconventional oil production? It's a short-term blip that is already showing signs of exhaustion. Expect decline by the end of the decade, if the majors' dumping CAPEX is any indication.
You're such as arrogant douchebag on this issue, yet you have so much invested in your snake oil pitch, you'll never back down now. I suspect by 2020 or so, when your industry is officially terminal, you'll do a "Big Fitz" and quietly disappear like the gutless coward that you are.
