Paul Kedrosky points us to a powerpoint presentation given by Matthew Simmons, an investment banker specializing in the oil industry, to a recent conference of investment advisors. It is everything that Seth Godin says a powerpoint presentation shouldn't be; the ugliest template MicroSoft could develop and far too many words. It is also 54 slides that lay out the future of fuel clearly and comprehensively- demand is young, supply is old, infrastructure is rusting, suppliers are less and less friendly.
Simmons' best hope: Conservation is highest quality new energy supply. See the whole show at ::Simmons & Company via ::Infectious Greed


















Nasty presentation, great content.
"Ship people and goods by water as 1st choice"
hmmm....that's not going to go down well to those living inland!
Why does this comment from Seth Godin appear
before the slides themselves?
For that matter, I disagree quite completely with
Seth's comment that slides should contain no
more than 6 words. What rubbish!
