### Comment:
&gt;	technology has always outpaced demand for every resource 
  
 Yeah that's not true. We see commodity prices respond to tech demands all the time.

You're talking short term. Whale oil was incredibly profitable and dwindling in supply until we started using petroleum.  I think he's making that statement based on long term trends of finding new resources to fulfill the same goal, thus reducing demand on the previous commodity required for tech.
