Here are the best read stories from Peakoil.com newsboards throughout 2006. Stories have been arranged according to month, to counterbalance the advantage older stories might have over newer ones. Unfortunately, it should be noted that stories may not always be available at their original sources anymore.Nevertheless, the list makes for an interesting, let's say, undulating plateau between hope
(biggest ever oil field off US coast), disbelief (CERA: ''Peak Oil'' theory is wrong) and despair (Fiscal crisis for Mexico as oil starts to dry up). Stories about environmental/climate change topics are markedly missing, by the way.
