RE:Diamond in the roughAh yes, T Boone "Peak Oil" Pickens, the guy who predicted just a couple years ago that we were running out of oil. Never mind fracking, with developing technologies we can now drill down, access and liquefy Coal Beds to the point where there is now a thousand years worth of Hydrocarbons at our disposal to be pumped out of the ground. (at present consumption rates). This from an article in New Scientist earlier in the year. We now have enough oil and gas to turn this planet into Venus with respect to climate. I wont put too much credence in good old T Boone's opinions.
