I expected nothing less of Shane. Good on him though.

 Something of a breakthrough - An ACT Minister has explicitly invoked
Peak
 Oil to justify a transport policy:

 http://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-news/our-roads-streets-ahead-20130802-2r58d.html

 "Although he is the ultimate ''go-to guy'' for the $288 million
Majura
 Parkway development, Canberra's most ambitious piece of road building
in
 years, Mr Rattenbury said more and bigger roads were not a truly
long-term
 answer to Canberra's future transport needs when scenarios such as
peak
 oil are considered. Peak oil is based on the premise that oil is a
finite
 resource and there will come a day when annual production begins to
fall."

 Alex Pollard

 Secretary
