Why are oil fields always found at the wrong spots at the wrong time?

80 billion barrels? The 8 billion barrel number was huge but 80 billion is astronomical. Makes you wonder what’s off our shores. Of course, we’ll never know.

And Amerika continues to ignore all the oil that we have off our coast and in ANWR. We continue to all a few envirowackos to cost us our future energy needs. We continue the stupidity.

The discovery challenges "peak oil" theorists who contend the Earth's supply of oil is running out.

Not really. Peak oil is crap, but this doesn't damage the theory: one can discover that estimates about supply are wrong, but that supply can still be decreasing.

If Brazil is as smart as America, they will just leave the oil untouched. (sarcasm?)

"found under 7,060 feet of water, another 10,000 feet of sand and rocks and a further 6,600 feet of salt – a total of 4.48 miles below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean."

That's a heck of a lot of pressure to get that deep. There is a similar find in the GOM (Gulf of Mexico) with about 15 billion barrels.
