I was just talking to my old champion, Quake and discussing the problems of our world and asking his for wisdom and advise, particularly on the price of gas these day. This is how he explained it to me: A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country. ~~~ Well, there's a very simple answer. ~~~ Nobody bothered to check the oil. ~~~ We just didn't know we were getting low ~~~ The reason for that is purely geographical. ~~~ Our OIL is located in ~~~ ALASKA ~~~ California ~~~ Coastal Florida ~~~ Coastal Louisiana ~~~ Kansas ~~~ Oklahoma ~~~ Pennsylvania and Texas ~~~ Our DIPSTICKS are located in Washington , DC !!!! Any Questions on why gas is over $3 a gallon? Quake ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
