The stone age did not end because we ran out of stones.[/quote']I hope this is optimism that we will come up with something new when our backs are up against the wall. I think Stone Age man had differrent motivations.

Sayonara, that post is in agreement with you.

 

Eventually the oil age will end and not because there is no oil left in the ground.

 

I doubt we will ever run out of oil completely. Canada has more oil than Saudi Arabia in its Tar sands. But technology develops, other more relaible and cleaner sources of fuel will be developed.
