it's not very well know... but M. King Hubbert was one of the 'founding fathers' of the Techcratic movement, and helped set up Technocracy, Inc. as well as writting a large portion of the Study Guide.... so I added this information, plus a pretty picture from a really old newspaper, to the article.

I've read a bit about his biography and I am a bit dismayed that details of his personal life are not included in the biography section. I remember that he was married but none of that is mentioned. He is a bit of a personal hero of mine and presumably will be even more to others in the future. Paul Bunyun big even. I understand that it should not detract from his work but a little would be nice.--66.223.168.45 (talk) 01:08, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good job, Craig. C. Thomas Howell


Hubbert argued that the main solution for fossil fuel depletion was nuclear energy. The report he made in '56 was called 'Nuclear Energy and the fossil Fuels' for a reason.

I removed several external links because they violated EL. Some of them may be useful as sources for the article:

"Further reading" were also either not related to Hubbert himself, duplicates, or needed to be integrated as sources. Moved to here:
