What If We Never Run Out of Oil? New technology and a little-known energy source suggest that fossil fuels may not be finite. This would be a miracle—and a nightmare.

As the great research ship Chikyu left Shimizu in January to mine the explosive ice beneath the Philippine Sea, chances are good that not one of the scientists aboard realized they might be closing the door on Winston Churchill’s world. Their lack of knowledge is unsurprising; beyond the ranks of petroleum-industry historians, Churchill’s outsize role in the history of energy is insufficiently appreciated.

I've done a lot of reading over the years about the origin of hydrocarbons in the earth, and I am of the opinion that there are astronomic quantities of it, or its building blocks in the earth, and the earth itself at depths where conditions of heat and pressure are in a certain range will produce hydrocarbons from the minerals in place. I doubt that we will ever run out of this energy source, but I think we will stop using it when our technology allows us to capture a cleaner, cheaper and more abundant source of energy--something like cosmic electricity--which is what Nikola Tesla called Radiant Energy. This technology has been retarded by our elite who have a monopoly on the production of oil, and would not like to see an end to the cash flow into their pockets resulting from this monopoly. They would prefer that humanity use the oil they sell us at exorbitant prices instead of something cleaner, cheaper and more abundant. Hell's bells, we're not even supposed to talk about alternative energy unless they have a monopoly on it too.

The Russians developed deep oil drilling ,tapping into a vast limitless reservoir that never seems to run out possibly.These are deeper down, then normal and so we get BP trying to do this in a unstable area and,well we know what happened there of course...........

The Russians are better at this and are sitting pretty in the energy dept.
