I'm not at all ready
for the collapse of society after we run out of oil. I don't know how to hunt or gather. I live in a condo, for crying out loud.
My best hope is to go around shaking trees and pray that a jar of Skippy will come flying out.
Any of you guys preparing?

5. 200 years?
Last I heard we had 200 years of oil, at least. Did I fall asleep and miss a few decades?

7. Depends on what you mean by 200 years worth
it's getting it out of the ground cost effectively that counts. Here is a thread that has links to the subject of Peak Oil and what it will mean in terms of economic security....it ain't pretty...

6. The answer is cannibalism :-)
Plenty of food around, you just need to grab it.
