What an idiot you are! By admitting that the problem to access the oil we 
know exits in vast quantities is cost, you admit that "peak oil" is merely a 
moronic slogan perpetrated by morons like you a Lavigne.

Idiot, cost is always a factor. And as long as society is willing to pay the 
cost, "peak oil" can be put off indefinitely.

But that requires at least a modicum of intelligence to understand. A 
quality sorely lacking in your pea brain.
