While I'm in no position to comment on the accuracy of the article, being neither an energy analyst or oil industry specialist, I'm getting a bit tired of the vicious ad-hominen attacks in blog comments about articles such as this one. It's ok to do reasoned debate, but calling everyone who disagrees with you 'in payment of big oil' is very childish. This same feature cuts across all climate-change and peak-oil articles on both sides of the argument. You can't win an argument by name calling and shouting, unless you're in the playground with other 5 year olds.
