Since my childhood I have been hearing from people of all occupations that the oil is going to end/finish in next 20-30 or at the most 50 years.Some say that USA has still kept it's oil wells untouched so as to enjoy when the world will suffer from shortage. I know that natural oil is going to end one day.But today I am 36 years old and listening this since about 25years. Can someone actually predict the tentative time period when oil will become a thing of the past ?

Hi there... Id like to think all this oil business was a thing of the past as we speak, or first thing tomorrow morning, but then who knows. I have often wondered about this myself... Have a good one...

I think oil is very crucial to our economy. It's rising prices have alarmed all nations. It will never be a thing of the past but a concern for the present and the future. And it might be a cause for war!
