The Oil Drum: Australia/New Zealand

Ed's Note: The intent of this thread is to combine two different discussion items:

1. A one-hour special on the oil situation, The Hunt for Black Gold. It features a discussion of peak oil, an interview with Sarah Palin, Matt Simmons, Randy Udall, and a closer look at oil company profits, and a discussion of alternatives. It was shown on CNBC yesterday, and will be shown again today, Thursday, Sept. 25 at 1 a.m. ET and on Sunday, Sept. 28 at 10 p.m. ET.

2. Heading Out's discussion of Day 2 of the ASPO-USA conference, which can be found below the fold.
