This is poor because it's inaccurate. There's plenty of information on the web about the Russians drilling deep and finding vast sources of oil. They created the Vietnam oil industry from nothing. Westerners are too lazy to drill beyond what they are comfortable doing. They continue to promote the myth that oil is a fossil fuel that exists in certain conditions only... not so. The Russkies, who are currently the highest oil producers for a country on this planet, used a different thinking and went to more trouble. The whole 'Peak Oil' nonsense reminds me of an innocent conspiracy (or maybe not so innocent knowing what Big Oil are like)that is perpetuated to keep oil prices high. It is not in the interests of Big Oil and any government to lower the price of oil and expand production. Motor fuel is a shared monopoly between oil producers and the government. If Microsoft were in charge of oil production, then you can bet there would be 1,000 anti-trust suits in place. But government spends your tax dollar allowing mis-information to be peddled all over the place so that you end up paying more. If the government was serious about saving you money and saving the environment, it would facilitate the rapid deployment of 'water' running motor vehicles ... there's plenty of information on the web on how to run a car on water (not hydrogen but water). but they're not serious. And don't forget, you voted them in so you get what you voted for.Read full review
