T&T: $100 a barrel ......the the real issues

[David H Sorenson]

REPLY: The fact is much of the crude oil in the midwest already comes
from the Alberta oil sands. A pipeline from Canada already skirts Duluth
and another BIG one is being plannned along with a major expansion of a
refinery here and one in Chicagoland. Then there is the oil shale
deposits in Wyoming which are larger than all Saudi Arabia ever had. 

Methinks there is something else going on on the high prices. Politically
correct manipulation by the enviros or global warming crowd?
