> Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel, we're looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

That's enough to bail out Wall Street another five times!

There are yet many lifetime's existing reservoirs, and so much petroleum yet undiscovered.

Thank God for high sea levels, biologics and sedimentation in the geologic pat.

USGS estmates 3-4 billion barrels. Not 500 as some investment groups reported.

Excellent news. Now we should put our brightest minds to work figuring out more efficient ways of extracting it.

I'd love to work in that area, maybe I'll drop some hints to my companies bosses or find a company to work for that does that kinda stuff.

We can do anything if we try to. Put Sarah Barracuda in charge of it.
