John,

Be careful with this guy Yergin. He's a crook. He recently was on national television (CNBC) lying about the potential for oil in Iraq and Canada. He downplayed the importance of the easily liftable and light, sweet reserves of Iraq, in order to make the lying thieves of the Bush White House appear less criminal.

And then he added a whopper, claiming that Canada had greater reserves of crude oil than does Iraq. This total chicanery was based on a deliberate confusion of ready reserves with ultimately recoverable reserves, and a confusion of light, sweet crude with oil sands!

I was astonished that a sophisticated man like Yergin could be so completely and deliberately dishonest. But then, he's a paid whore for GE, NBC and the Republicans. Fortunately, some important voices are starting to call these liars scoundrels and worse:
