Quote from: TDoS on Apr 16, 2025, 07:02 PMYou seem to be wandering farther afield than I can follow. What is an alphabet soup agency, are you referring to the USGS and Hubbert's work for them?

CIA, DHS, FBI, ICE, etc. Alphabet agency is a common colloquialism, you should be familiar with given they are your federal govt

If you are American, they are yours as well.

Quote from: TDoSDeleting posts certainly has nothing to do with being misleading....it is more like  retrieving the pearls after they've been dropped and no one seems capable of undestanding that they are indeed pearls.

Quote from: Goldernen OxernenWhich you would not be dropping for free then, fitting with talking about what easy money it is, posting for some govt entity.

Please can we keep silly conspiracies to a minimum?. I have never in my life posted on behalf of a government agency. Period. You are allowed to hallucinate such things of course, but it isn't true and never has been.

Quite aside from being able to deny you said anything people remember you saying, unless you were quoted if everything is deleted.

Well that is true. Good thing I am happy to repeat myself when people remember some snippet and ask me to answer the question again. The good thing about telling the truth though is you don't need to remember what I said, as it is personal experience and I just say it again. Easier for me of course as they are my personal experience, as compared to someone wishing they could actually remember what I said.

What does 1890 have to do with anything? The first credible "end of oil" was claimed in 1886, so if that claim by JP Lesley is what you're referring to, you are off by a few years.

You didn't mention JP Lesley in your answer to the question when was peak oil, if so many other dates are wrong because the wells didnt all run dry in the given year. I guess if extraction in 1890 exceeded dinosaur 🦕 🦖 decomposition and compression, you would have been right.

I mentioned JP Lesley because you brought up something about peak oil from the distant past, and that is almost as distant as it gets for peak oilers. Any peak oiler worth their salt knows this.

Your representation of the thermogenic process that creates oil and gas is entertaining. And proves a point I often make, how in the HECK is someone to know anything about peak oil when they don't even know where or when it came from, was found, was developed, the kerogen types and all the rest of the geochemistry. They just substitute...DEAD DINOSAURS. tsk tsk. No wonder they got it so wrong a couple decades ago. And in 1990. And 1956. And 1943. And 1936. And 1919. Etc etc, back to JP Lesley.

If by "legal trouble" you are referring to another incident involving perfectly reasonable defense of ones person using a firearm, again, is self defense not permitted where you live? Because here in America, it is perfectly legal.

You said you were but a teenager when you had to lawyer up and got away by a whisker of going to jail for it. If that is consistent with either incident mentioned today, puzzle solved.

That's the story. I don't talk about it much. Why is it relevant to you? You are now confused as to how someone with such a record could jive with your working for an alphabet soup agency? Can you see what the background check after that exercise would look like?

CIA (circa2005): Man, this guy knows a BUNCH of this peak oil happening tomorrow afternoon oil nonsense, we should hire him to front for us on all those blogs that might reveal the secret that went down in the Twin Towers! Mike Ruppert has exposed us!

(Background check)

CIA: Holy BatCrap! He defended himself resulting in bad news for the other guy! We can't have someone capable of such lawful acts working for our squeaky clean expert division to sow disinformation in no-name internet clubs!

Given that the Diner no longer exists and therefore there ARE NO POSTS AT ALL, I'm not sure what you're getting at? i simply evacuated the burning building early.

Theres a "legacy portal". RE probably saved the entire contents to microfish and 5" floppy disc so you can use your TRS80's TDOS.  Use  MSDOS for the web portal.

Beyond my computer skills. I'm just an oil guy. K-Dog and RE can experiment all they'd like with old computers and whatnot to keep their history alive as long as they are, I specialize in knowing stuff about oil and gas and the future.

The pattern of events we see unfolding fits my expectations at least. Ill wager that membership was larger not smaller in 2013 meaning nobody was disappointed on 21/12/2012. 

Without knowing your posting history, and I don't because I have primarily focused on those who didn't know much about the geosciences and apply what they don't know enthusiastically, I'm glad what you expected is happening. Same with me and oil. So it sounds like...WE WIN!

Quote from: TDoSDamn straight. You want it, you keepit. I didn't even know how bad it was until I went to college. You want to scratch your life out of the dirt in the holler, have at it and enjoy. But don't expect all of us who lived that life to join you once we've escaped. Selling poverty is harder than selling peak oil consequences nowadays, 7 years after it finally happened.

Who does the lasooing then?

I don't know what lasooing is. That thing you do from a horse to catch a cow? Peak oil interest died awhile ago, even before it finally happened in 2018. <yawn> I now work on other aspects of resource development.
