Everything around us is made from petroleum. We should be kissing their feet rather than demonizing them.

I appreciate that sentiment. I work in oil and gas and it is very much my livelihood. Thank you! Not to start trouble here but in some ways it gets really really old hearing and reading threads like this. No offense to Boog or anyone else, but with out us out here busting our asses to make sure you’ve got the oil and natural gas we need everything would grind to a halt right here right now. There’s not a single aspect of your lives that isn’t touched by oil. If the supply was higher the profits would be lower, AHEM Washington-specifically the big guys house on Pennsylvania Avenue. I can tell you all first hand that it’s gotten harder to drill because of permitting and harder to produce wells because of fugitive methane emissions regulations at the state and federal levels. There’s a lot more I can say and I have on here in the past but I’m not going to do it. It’s a waste of my time, I’ve got nascar to watch. The ones who get it get it, and the ones who don’t likely never will. No one particular in mind with that statement so if one takes it personal that’s on them.
