Very good. I see you got the saying right this time after I had to correct
you.

There's the dismount..
<applause!>
Perfect projection! Amazing!
Here, just take a look:
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.
What am I wrong about, Dave?
Dave Fritzinger continues his statement thereby confirming that we are
talking about the 3% and 25% figures: 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.
