Does anybody know, that according to some Oil Geologists (e.g. Colin
Campbell) in 2013 the world oil output is going to peak ?

We have been running out of oil according to the experts since at
least 1925. Doesn't anyone remember the story about the little
boy that cried wolf???

While massive oil/fuel shortages may well occur, these will be
the result of market manipulation not any actual shortage, the
same as it was the last time.

One possible corrective/preventative measure would be the
erection of gallows capable of multiple hangings at the same time
labeled with the oil company logos such as Shell, BP, Exxon, etc.
with the nooses tagged "this spot reserved for:" "Chairman,"
"CEO," "CFO," "VP Marketing," etc.

An ideal spot would be in front of the headquarters buildings or
the executive parking lot where these individuals would pass by
every day on their way to/from work. A set of gallows outside NY
Mercantile and ICE would also be appropriate, with spots reserved
for the top traders.
