Hoarding is exactly what the government is doing right now by filling the SPR, and frankly it's the best thing that could happen. It drives prices up. High prices encourage demand destruction. They also finance new well development. The hoarded oil gives us a buffer to fall back on once shortages become more prevalent. High prices are what we need in order to adapt to what's coming, and the sooner they happen, the better.

Here's a guest submission for the newsboard that came in today.
It's not very useful for us, but anyone interested could take a look at the video.

Please watch Google video by Lindsey Williams. He was a chaplin on the north slope of alaska. He explaines what is going on and why. It is not about the lack of oil, but rather the control of money and people. This man has nothing to gain by telling the truth, but to inform the public what is really going on behind the scenes. If you want to know the truth, watch this 75 minute video and you will understand who, what, why, and when, of oil http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=lindsey+williams&sitesearch=# Honest Bill
Honest Bill probably is the poster's nick. It came in as an anonymous guest submission. _________________ The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function.

I wasted a half an hour listening to this old baptist preacher blab on about a story he had heard 30 years ago.
He wrote his book and began the attention whoring way back during the 70s energy crisis.
He's come back out of the woodwork recently, for obvious reasons, to pitch his "10 KSAs under Alaska" fantasy.
Baptist preacher, no evidence, no scientific background, no corroborating witnesses.
About as bunky and TF as you can get. _________________ Massive Human Dieoff must occur as a result of Peak Oil. Many more than half will die. It will occur everywhere, including where you live. If you fail to recognize this, then your odds of living move toward the "going to die" group.

Guess, I had the right hunch, then.
But that's what you get, when submiting 75 minute video's to the news page. We just don't have the time on our hand to check them properly. _________________ The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function.

This guy may be a baptist nutjob, but he is having an effect on those eager to blame the current crisis on the Democrats. "Liberals won't allow drilling in ANWR, and there is sooo much oil there, enough for 200 years; therefore, liberals are to blame for high gas prices." Just another in a long line of rovian tactics to smokescreen middle America into voting themselves into oblivion.
