A bell shaped curve depicting global and US oil production developed by M. King Hubbert in the 1950's. The computation predicted that US oil production would peak around 1970 and global oil production would peak around the turn of the millennium. Although the US prediction was surprisingly accurate the global prediction was slightly off. Instead of a peak a plateau is currently being observed. Many people use this observation to "debunk" peak oil.
Hubbert's peak is central to the peak oil community and discussions. With the recent advancements in petroleum engineering and exploration more advance models have been developed to predict the future of oil production. Even thought the global oil production hasn't really begun to decline many people are fairly certain that we have already peaked.
Pessimist: Hubbert's peak is a valid expression of simple mathematics, physics, and economics.
Optimist: What the fuck are you talking about its the government's fault gas is so high.
First appearing in the Ghibli movie, "Whisper of the Heart", and again in the 2002 movie, "The Cat Returns", Baron Humbert Von Gikkingen is the coolest character to ever walk on the face of the Earth. He is a half cat/ half human creature dress in a suit and top hat. He is the most dapper person you'll ever meet and he fights with a freaking cane.
He also referred to as "Baron". His best friends are Toto the crow and Muta the fat cat. They the Cat Bureau, a investigation organization
God, Baron Humbert Von Gikkingen is so cool, I can barely pronounce his name
Bavarian origin, he is the Protector of the hunters for the German speaking people. A Hubertus is known to be tall, handsome and dark haired. Also, a very kind person in nature. Due to his origin, he is an expert with weapons and a superb Marksman. If you ever find yourself in a bad situation (like a bank robbery) you will be blessed when a Hubertus is close. When approached by a Hubertus, let him know you come in peace. Say; „Hubertus, thank you for your service“ then lead him to some beautiful girls because he is a protector.
Ashley: Yesterday I met a Hubertus!
Katharine: Damn girl, you got yourself a fine ass protector!
