I agree, and as mentioned before, the current prices are above the cost of even "unconventional" oil and synthetic fuel from coal production. There can be a period while production catches up with demand, but long term, these are unsupportable prices.

Eventually, of course, we'll move away from fossil fuel use to long term energy sources, but that's not something that will happen real soon.
