       Re: Key Kazakh oilfield hit by protests

       Let me recap the context you forget. You dreamed up discussions
       about oil fields and protests of them signifying... well,
       something?reinforcing the idea we are fools.
       [/quote]
       Well, certainly on the topic of oilfields. Unless you want to
       disprove the supposition by discussing any one of the three
       largest oil accumulations on the planet and the accompanying
       costs, sizes, ongoing development (or not), reserve and resource
       sizes, geopolitical issues and effect of all these factors on
       future development?  ;D
       [quote author="Phil Potts"]
       The only discussion of oil fields was on sustainability and
       EROEI, not protesting them.
       [/quote]
       Well, perhaps if folks didn't use the word "protesting" and
       "oilfields" in the same title sentence, I might believe you? The
       idea of a sustainable oilfield is about as amusing as any
       alleged expert daring to know that in the history of the oil and
       gas industry not once has an EROEI metric been relevant to the
       decision making process to proceed, or not. But without a
       corresponding oil expert claiming to know pertinent details on
       the most important oil accumulations on the planet, that isn't a
       surprise is it?
       [quote author="Phil Potts"]
       You said then it is obvious oil fields are not sustainable, but
       I might think they are.
       [/quote]
       Please elaborate. Unless of course you want to play a semantic
       game related to the timing of oil generation as proof that human
       time scales aren't relevant to the definition of "sustainable"?
       In either case, I'm happy to discuss topics that folks seem to
       think I know something about.
       [quote author="phil potts"]
       The only person to suggest anything like that is yourself in
       saying we have 200 yrs of oil left. If you want to excuse
       yourself from it now, it explains deleting your own comments
       soon after making them.
       [/quote]
       I have explained the possibilities under which I would claim
       that 200 years was a relevant timeframe. Read them again as I
       haven't removed the post. Pretend I was telling the true
       because...you know...I was. Feel free to use your oil expertise
       to decimate whatever oil argument you believe I made. All you
       seem to recall is someone, maybe me, maybe not, claimed there is
       200 years of oil left. With neither of us remembering the exact
       context, or in my place, that I even said such a thing.
       [/quote]
       You must agree I would be the fool if I believed other people
       are idiots if they know less than me about neurodegeneration>the
       substantia nigra>prion diseases>protein folding>kreutzfeldt
       Jacobs disease>definite death. Just in case you might know
       someone dying or dead from it and learned it's aetiology, I can
       shift to things the clinic can't tell you. What anomaly you
       would expect to find on the brain in autopsy of this guy below?
       Supposing you fluked it he would have a bulge on the right motor
       cortex associated with left hand, you could tell me whether if
       he spent another 50 yrs learning more and more notes, chords and
       melodies that gyrus would become a sulci, or extra connectivity
       across the cortex with a thicker corpus callosum or both. What a
       waste of my time typing all that and everyone else's reading it.
       Now I do feel foolish, throwing around jargon to confuse rather
       than inform readers.
       If we do not make any claims on oil related matters, our
       accuracy on them is 100% correct. All that remains then is the
       question of why you are so insistent we are idiots. Not only why
       you made up that we had discussions of protests at oilfields to
       throw in we know nothing about oilfields, but why you
       effectively turn up to BLM in a KKK cloak and then tell us we
       are unfit to be in your presence.
       You needed to read the article to understand protests and
       oilfield in the headline didn't mean protests of oilfields.
       EROEI seems to determine which oil is accessed earliest and
       last. As for that headline triggering false memories, I doubt
       you could successfully sue.
       There's nothing to elaborate or discuss on what you said in that
       we are correct oilfields are not sustainable. If now it needs
       further qualifiers, that's for you to provide, it's not for me
       to explain your statement. Better you clarify you're not talking
       about abiotic oil with it possibly being generated in human
       timeframes, equivalent to having been inside area 51.
       There's no question it was you who gave the answer of 200 years
       and I've given you the exact context. You painted yourself into
       a corner of needing to provide a more substantial answer to the
       question of how many years we do have if you are saying someone
       else is wrong and the reason why is only they are often right
       for the wrong reasons.
       If you were not "telling the true", it also explains why you
       were deleting
       all your comments.
       It's a non issue anyway. There's really no need to go into the
       only discussion of oil fields being on their not being
       sustainable and flow on effects. Just stick to discussion of oil
       fields and protests of them proving we are idiots, and whether
       you were telling the true again. Now I don't know whether
       Ghanwar, The Permian Basin and Eagle Ford are really real.

       Ukraine:  Who will Pull the Trigger?
       By: RE Date: January 14, 2022, 5:17 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       "Diplomacy" so far has failed to resolve the problem.  Who will
       blink first in this game of Chicken?
       Will NATO try to sneak some missiles into Ukraine?  Will Vlad
       the Impaler roll the Tanks?  Who will blame who for the ensuing
       melee?  Will it escalate and how?  What economic sanctions will
       be invoked by either side?  Will a covert Cyber war be
       undertaken as each side tries to out-hack the other?
       I doubt Vlad will back down.  He drew a line in Ukaine Sand, and
       if he perceives it's being crossed, he will roll the tanks.
       Opinions welcome on how this will play out.

       JHK said a lot of nothing.  His thesis seems to be the FSoA and
       NATO should do nothing.  But then how do the Eurotrash get
       Ruskie NG?  After all these years in the Collapse Biz, at least
       a passing reference to the Energy transfer biz and pipelines
       should seem to be in order.  He says nothing at all about it.
       This isn't really about FSoA v Mother Russia, it's about NATO &
       the EU v MR.  Ukraine sits smack dab in between.  We won't be
       sending Kansas Grunts to fight (if we actually have any), the
       Krauts will have to send their grunts.  And the Frogs too.  Then
       they can exchange Cruise Missiles and blow the rotting
       infrastructure to hell.
       All in all, I found JHKs analysis too be quite shallow.

       That might be true,, but if Brussels  aligns with Moscow instead
       of Washington, the whole NATO group falls apart.  I doubt the
       Germans would ever align with the Russians.  Besides that there
       is the REAL power, the World Bank and the IMF that is calling
       the shots here.  Unless and until they change the Reserve
       Currency from the Dollar to the Rouble, the FSoA Military is
       their Muscle.  Remember, all wars are Banker Wars.
