Gas Prices

Like I said in another thread, that's true. But only if we use the ANWR oil to account for 100% of our energy use, which is unrealistic and asinine. I've seen projections that if we use the ANWR oil to supplement our other sources (5% of the total oil we use), it could last for over 30 years.


There's one reason I can't really blame "Big Oil" for anything. They're just the middle man. They've been forced to buy oil overseas, and they can't control what they pay for a barrel. That's my simpleton view of it anyway :dunno

You're pretty much right.

I could prove to you that 10-15 years ago, you could actually correlate profit margins and the cost of oil on the supply and demand curves.

But not anymore, it's taken on a life of its own, and the oil companies believe it or not live and die by a sword they no longer control....

It's slowly becoming a.....One World Economy:ninja

I don't know if this is the right place for this, but I just bought my first motorcycle. '03 Triumph Speed Triple (green).

Hello 118hp @ 75mpg!

The lady at the DMV told me she does more motorcycle licenses now per day than she did per month when she got into the business.

The market is starting to flex its muscle.

Added perk... $8.21 a month to insure. <Jimmy Neutron Dance>

(That's like Four Pounds a month Pete)
