I'll never forget one of my freshman "intro to engineering" courses in college the professor spent probably 15 min on the very first day going on about peak oil and how we were all doomed. He said this to a class full of kids enthusiastic about their future who want to build and make the world a better place. To this day, it was the single most toxic thing i've ever experienced and this was in the mid/late 1990's! If only one kid took his brain/soul poison to heart it would be a tragedy.

Yeah peak oil. I remember books on the bestseller racks about that one.

I was amused when the Peak Oil site The Oil Drum shut down because of the dwindling number of contributors of "high quality content".
