Bob,
I never implied that it was. I quoted what the oil companies laid on us in
1973. At that time I was actively working in a refinery. We had so much
gasoline that we were dumping it rather that shut down. The whole thing
was a lie. It's all economics.   The real problem is....
affordable energy.  If people can't afford to pay their bill, there's a
serious
problem. If we have to have LEAP to help those who can't, there's a serious
problem.  With our incoming president in the oil business, forgive me if I
am
not comfortable with that.  Clinton opened the reserves. No real effect
other
than his opponent was against it. He wants to drill for more oil.  We need
a real seriously affordable alternative.
