Remember when the earth was supposed to run out of oil by 2000

and 1.6 billion barrels of oil

According to the USGS, that's enough gas to supply the United States for 10 months


So... In just 10 short months 1.6 BILLION BARREL of oil will be burned?

Just think what life is going to be like in 10 years... It is almost inconceivable to me the rate at which we burn gasoline.

We already have enough oil reserves in the US to where we shouldn’t have to rely on a bunch of low IQ ragheads to get it for us.

It's more of a processing issue than anything else. Would require tens (possible hundreds) of billions to build out/retrofit the refining needed. I don't see companies doing that or the feds doing that either.

We got sections in Mitchell and Howard counties. I crack up when he drives back and forth between Midland/Odessa and Ft Worth for a quick meeting. It’s at least a 4 hr. drive, 8 hrs there and back.
