I always have mixed feelings about things like this. On one hand I hate to see people having to pay so much for gasoline. Another way to look at Paying so much is that in the 50's, a US silver quarter would buy a gallon of gasoline. Today a pre 1964 US quarter will buy about a gallon and a half, so the real price has declined. You can't measure things with a super elastic yardstick! On the other hand, without price pressure there is no incentive to develop alternative fuels, better batteries or even cold fusion. - Jed

I'd be more worried about the impact of something like this on the environment.

Re: [Vo]:how will massive oil discovery impact LENR?
They say it it light oil, that makes it much easier to extract than say the tar sands of Canada. Don't think it matters though. I'm still betting on LENR.
Re: [Vo]:how will massive oil discovery impact LENR?
Think about this. What is the maximum of a function? It doesn't have to be something that hits a value and falls. It can stay there, constantly, and be a maximum. These new discoveries looks like requiring more energy and more effort to extract, so while in more quantity, the output will either be more expensive or require more time to extract. So, this is a kind of peak. 2013/10/14 a.ashfield a.ashfi...@verizon.net They say it it light oil, that makes it much easier to extract than say the tar sands of Canada.

Re: [Vo]:how will massive oil discovery impact LENR?
Light oil, even few could ease the transition, avoiding expensive oild which ask for decades of investments.. It is good to help LENR... LENR, unless bad surprise, will capture most of energy market and transform it. in few decades. if meanwhile there is an easy solution without tar sand, shales, coal, why not... 2013/10/14 a.ashfield a.ashfi...@verizon.net They say it it light oil, that makes it much easier to extract than say the tar sands of Canada.
