This is a video of comedian Robert Newman providing some history of oil production and use, and the wars that were required to keep the oil flowing. It’s long, but it’s pretty darn good.

It’s good when we can laugh about these things because really, we are utterly doomed. Nobody has ever told me any different, and I have no reason to believe otherwise.
