Oops.. My bad. You two touting the same irrelevant numbers - it's easy to
get confused.
Now, let this be an example to you as to being a man and admitting when

I understand your argument. You thought that the 25% and 3% figures bore
relevance, and seek any op****tunity to pooh pooh drilling no matter what
in
service of your party masters. That's what got you into trouble in the
first
place.

Here, I'll let you mull it over again. Perhaps given time, you can do more
than name-call and can come up with an explanation that makes you look a
little, well.. more honest and intelligent.
Eddie Haskell: It is quite impossible to take those two numbers and form
an
equation that will tell you how much oil we have or how long it will last,
and both numbers are irrelevant, accurate or not.
Dave Fritzinger: Actually, you are wrong, as usual. One number is the
amount
of oil the US is known to have. Yes we may have some more, but not large
multiples of that amount. The other is the percentage of the world's
production that we consume, and our total consumption.
