Actually he does but you'd have to read more of his site and not just a 
few paragraphs out of context.

I'm sure Jan would be happy to provide the references to which you refer 
if you were to contact him

instead of just complaining in public forums.

    "Jan C. Lundberg, a national speaker, writer and publisher, is best
    known for running what was widely considered "the bible of the oil
    industry," Lundberg Survey Inc. In 1979 the firm predicted the
    Second Oil Shock. After 14 years there, he left for-profit work to
    found the nonprofit Sustainable Energy Institute, now Culture
    Change. For almost twenty years he has studied peak oil, energy
    alternatives, and conservation based primarily on grassroots change
    in lifestyle. He has assisted clients interested in the impacts of
    peak oil and climate change on material security and community
    connection. Educated in Europe and on the high seas, he has pursued
    an adventure called a career that is still evolving."
