Yep. Every "steepest annual contraction" has been followed by eventual greater oil use because consumption/production is just shifted to the future. The buildings not being built today, the movies not seen this week, the vacation not taken this month, etc are just moved to sometime in the future. In other words, consumption/production isn't being ended, it's simply being delayed.
