"It's just the numbers are so huge that we have nothing to worry about" Ok, so what are those numbers? Since you're simply asserting it is the case anyway, what is the threshold at which we should worry? This is a pretty big claim, without any numbers to back it up.
The rest of your post is just vague bits of nothing. You paint a picture of an ebb and flow of oil discoveries that track oil need. This is not the case. Take a look at oil field discoveries over time, and you will see a steady decline in finds since the 1960s, despite new technologies that allow better exploration. Every 15-20 years there's a spike in finds, but it's always 30-50% smaller than the previous spike. There's little reason to expect that suddenly we're going to start finding new reserves the size of the ones found pre 1970, which is what it would take to even begin to hope that we've got a virtually unlimited supply of oil for the foreseeable future.
