Only in our extended coffee klatch has it ever been the rage.
Oh, that isn't true. There are still UK dedicated peak oil sites up and running, there were plenty of other forums up and running pre-2005, the ROE alt.forums, peakoil.com is still trucking along, although it appears to be more economically oriented, with random conspiracy stuff thrown in to keep it entertaining. Reddit even came up with a peakoil forum 5 years or so back. POB didn't even start until like 2015, and TOD was doing fine until it imploded under the weight of, you know, disappointment. ASPO began near the turn of the century, and took nearly 15 years to tuck tail and run away. Plus all the cool books on the topic back then, it made the front page of USA Today above the fold in like 2005! I just watched the video on how Cuba survived Peak oil from 2006, the nostalgia is strong in that one. The Diner started when? 2006-07-08?
