>>And where do you suppose we store all that excess oil?????? The only problem in the price of oil now is that there are tankers sitting in the ocean with no place to unload.<<

I'm waiting for the former captain of the EXXON VALDEZ to be named special consultant on storage for the oil industry. Then we should see some real movement. <ggg>
