If it does not apply? Then it 'may' fall into the "may not want to know" category. Choices.

Applies

Much of the data still applies, although the "tipping point" (where we are producing at a rate that will deplete supplies) has now moved out about 60 years from now. Also, the fact that the US is now the world's leader in natural gas production is not included in the older figures. This is in large part due to the discovery, and enhanced technology, that has allowed the recovery of hydrocarbons from shale formations.

Since I was laid off last year, I have undertaken a possible career change and am pursuing a degree in Petroleum Technology ... so, my information is recent. For more up to date information, see if you can find the movie "spOILed" -- and even it is out of date as was produced in 2010 before the Barnett and Eagleford shale formations were tapped extensively in Texas.
