[TLI]

The author fails to make a distinction between gas and crude oil.

Poor title but I put it in as written. The complete article refers to oil inventories as well as gas inventories.

You are right - the complete article is rather good. The excerpt makes the author look like a moron, on the other hand.

Another unintended consequence of government regulation, BTW - which is the only point the author seems to have missed (botique formulation effects on price).
