"They've been doing other things funding research raising fuel standards etc - what's the trouble with juicing the supply." When was the last time CAFE was raised? What is the level of funding for research? Is it like the time that Smirk cut the funding for biofuels right before making the lab that was hardest hit the centerpiece of a PR piece? "Besides they can't nor won't craft policy unless something big is found - is that your fear?" I don't fear it. Just dubious. There aren't that many new continents to be discovered. Those we have, have been pretty much picked over. I know geologists in the field. If you think they haven't been shooting seismics in areas they currently aren't allowed to drill, you are, at best, naive. If a large deposit were found, their company would, umm. make the donations required to make it possible. They aren't there. Trust in it.
