"Matt Simmons ... lays out the case quite persuasively that global [oil] production peaked in 2005 at 74,298,000 barrels a day and now is a couple million below that, while daily consumption has continued to climb and is rapidly approaching 88 million barrels.

I agree with Simmons, the era of cheap oil is over.

Andrew Cuomo in New York is concerned about the documentation problem, see my 8 and 10 December posts which mention Cuomo. Yves Smith at Naked Capitalism, link provided, has followed this situation and has a 12 January post about it.
I agree with you, this looks like the S&L mess redux. Another person following this is Fred Cederholm, a CPA who posts at Financial Sense, which I also link to.
