Jim Kunstler sets the record straight on my prior post "Running out of oil":

David--
As usual, you draw the wrong conclusion.    
True, the oil depletion curve is a slope not a cliff.
BUT, the systems breakdown occurs relative to tipping points, which are, in fact, cliff-like.

As usual, Jim, we all look forward to learning the truth from you. But your conjecture about "tipping points" is simply a trendy assertion with not even the hint of a rationale.
