Folks,
In this week’s article for Energy and Capital, I finally get around to a detailed debunking of the “hydrogen economy.” Hydrogen has its uses, but I don’t believe it will ever be a significant part of the transportation infrastructure.

Folks,
In this week’s article for Energy and Capital, I address the buzz du jour: the new forecast on oil supply and demand from the National Petroleum Council. They’re still not acknowledging reality, but they seem to be getting closer.

Folks,
The IEA’s new report last week had some very stark warnings about the tight balance between oil supply and demand, and projected a possible shortfall of supply by 2010. The report generated a lot of buzz around the world so I felt like I had to comment on it. Here’s my take, for the Energy and Capital newsletter.

Folks,
If you tried to tune in to my interview on the Ken Brown show last week only to find another interview being broadcast, my apologies. I’m new to the broadcast business, but it seems to be a very flexible environment where last-minute changes to the schedule are common. Such was the case at the Florida radio station hosting my interview last week.
But they were kind enough to give me an MP3 of it, so I can share it with you here. Do note this is a large file–85 MB–so if you’re not on a broadband connection, you might want to let it download overnight or something.
I was pleased to have this opportunity to speak at length (45 minutes) on a broad range of energy topics, and I hope that it is informative and useful to the public. If you listen to it, please drop me a line with your constructive criticism!

Folks,
In my article for this week’s Energy and Capital, I review some current events of interest to peak oil observers. There are some disturbing trends developing around the world–in particular fuel shortages–and it’s important to keep one’s ear to the ground.

Folks,
Just a quick heads-up for some new radio interviews I am doing this week.
First, I just taped a rather long (45 minute) interview with a Florida station that will air tomorrow, Friday July 6 at 5:15 PM EST (2:15 PST). You can listen live over the Web at www.wsbrradio.com
Also, I have another interview tomorrow first thing in the morning, which I believe is a live interview. It starts at 11:30 am EST (8:30 am PST) and will air on KFNN in Phoenix. You can isten live at www.kfnn.com
If you do tune in, drop me a line and give me some feedback on it!
