Running out of oil!!

[Snowman66]

USGS Release: 3 to 4.3 Billion Barrels of Technically Recoverable Oil Assessed in North Dakota and Montana’s Bakken Formation—25 Times More Than 1995 Estimate— (4/10/2008 2:25:36 PM)

There's 5-10 times as much oil as what Saudi Arabia has in the Rocky Mountain states shale reserves.

Nobody will know for sure until we drill. There's a few hundred billion or a few trillion gallons or a few hundred billion barrels.

What happened to the group that was going to lobby for drilling now?

Americans who keep crying about our dependence on "foreign oil" - while opposing exploration of our abundant domestic reserves - make as much sense as Hugh Hefner joining an international dating service because he can't find any pretty women in America.

I've heard about those reserves. I have a friend who's a petroleum engineer major, he says some of the problem lies in the drilling itself.

I meant physically drilling. Contrary to popular belief, drilling into the side of a mountain aint too easy

That's why he's in college now. Exxon is hiring graduates out the @$$ to be the first to solve the problem. That's big $$$
