The Oil Drum notes that the NYT managed 3 articles on Peak Oil on Friday - Kenneth Deffeyes noting that drilling in the ANWR is pretty much pointless, an article touting "green coal" (gasified coal plants and geologic storage) and Oliver Sacks praising hybrid cars.

Maybe Sacks can suggest a drug like L-Dopa to get us out of our energy stupor. On the other hand, as I recall, that medicine only had a transitory effect.
I think Ronald reagan may have been the L-Dopa of peak oil - "its morning in america" made everyone forget all that 1970's oil crisis pessimism.
25 years later the effect is wearing off...
