If everybody accepts that peak oil is happening, if not now then within 15 years, isn't planning for it at least a little foresighted ? Certainly not worth deriding.

But I think it's more that these are adolescents being told to clean their rooms and saying 'NOT GONNA!'
There may not be much more going on that.
Does anyone read the Mises blog?
