On the Government's Predictions on Energy

"There's little or no chance of finding oil in Texas or Kansas." 1891 Geological Survey............."U.S. oil supplies will last only 13 more years." The U.S. Department of Interior, 1939............."...we could use up all the proven reserves of oil in the world by the end of the next decade." President Carter, 1977.............Yeah, they were all a wee-bit off.

Check into "Peak Oil"?

Sort of like that edge of the earth that lay to the west of Gibraltar.
