See my post above. There's oil in them thar seas...

And if Argentina's economy keeps going the way it is (down), that oil will
begin to look very attractive (especially at $70-$80 a barrel).





I think that the real truth is that there's much more oil to be
discovered than is admitted.

What riles me is the failure of the politicos to recognize that it is
time to employ technology to replace fossil fuels. Something comparable
to JFK's "Going to the Moon" effort. There just is not a good supply of
leaders with testicular fortitude to do what is right...

(Who thinks fossil fuels could be passé within ten years if...)

There is no doubt that fossil fuels CAN be replaced. Virtually every
diesel on the road today can run on a bio-diesel fuel. Every car could
run on pure alcohol. Of course, gas turbine and turbojet aircraft can
fly on almost anything flammable, piston engine planes could also use
alternatives. All it takes is the motivation to change. Eventually the
cost of extracting petroleum will provde that impetus.
