No.

...in the politest way I can say this; I do not think you grasp the concept entirely here, nor the profit sharing breakdown (VBG) - not quite as simplistic as a 50/50 deal or $20 - $4 = $16 etc...

SAUDI - realizes the growing tension in the Middle East - they have a window of oppoprtunity to solve many problems here; one is to regain Global dominance as they most influential & profitable producer controlling market share via its production.

They also need more $ to solve both social welfare & military build up needs... The Intnl Oil presence near the borders also serves as an ''Oil shield'' Buffer to Middle East Strife - this will all play out...

You know - ''Bats'' is smart - they have radar'' - but them Saudi's they be even smarter -just watch...(VBG).

We indeed are living in interesting times... historic in fact.

They will also NOT fail to ''solve'' the problems with Global Futures Traders controlling the Global Oil market - bank on it.

The incentive and the opportunity here is too much for them to pass up.... Saudi - will not institute cheating - they know Venezeula is allready cheating (they watch CNBC you know- vbg) and will ultimately use this as an excuse to open the pumps (after allready having forward hedged positions) whipsawing the Futures Traders in sweet revenge - just as promised.

For Saudi - the pledge to get revenge on the Futures Traders is more important than their OPEC pledge here... $14-16 Oil and everyone wins here.... hint - why do you think the Intnl Oil Majors have geared their existance and Budgets to that number ?

Both the Intnl Oil Majors, OPEC and Greenspan - know what is going to happen here !

Better be in good old US/Canadian Nat Gas plays...

PS - (Sarge, I broke the code !)
