If only the available IPv4 address space were growing as rapidly as the available oil... 1960s: Peak oil 1995 @12.5 billion barrels/year. Today: Peak oil 2035

If only the available IPv4 address space were growing as rapidly as the available oil... 1960s: Peak oil 1995 @12.5 billion barrels/year. Today: Peak oil 2035, current production is over 2.5X the previously predicted peak. There's also an increasing expectation that rather than "peak oil" being a supply-side constraint, it will be a demand-side constraint as more efficient use and alternative energy sources become available - that is, we will never "run out". http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/07/130710114436.htm http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/07/130710114436.ht...
