Well, the supply actually isn't exactly *finite* because it's renewable (Changing World Technologies still has their plant in Carthage, Missouri making oil from turkey guts, although it's had business problems and public-image problems and may not be profitable). Although obviously in order to make more fossil fuels you'd need energy input, and fusion power (which locally or in the sun) is one of the only ways to supply that energy long-term. And at that point, fossil fuels are only a distribution mechanism useful mainly for off-grid components (automobiles), and you might consider another energy distribution medium like fuel cells.
