In discussing the effects of Peak Oil, I like the analogy given at the site www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net, where a human body that is 70% water does not need to lose more than 10% of that before it means serious consequences. So how much of an economy has to be affected before the rest can't hold up the weight? In this concept, oil will never run out because if our system crashes, there won't be as many salaries left with which to buy the remaining oil - and their jobs will be gone because their companies ceased to exist, and it dominos down until the oil supply is no longer a concern at all.
