Oil, specifically running out of the shit

Seems to be
what everybody's
talking about it lately.

I covered this my first month blogging.


This study hadn't been written yet.


well wouldja lookit that--

...Cost information available from projects and design studies performed in the 1980s can be escalated to give a very rough estimate of the anticipated capital costs
for mining and surface retorting plants. Using this approach, a first-of-a-kind commercial surface retorting complex (mine, retorting plant, upgrading plant, supporting utilities, and spent shale reclamation) is unlikely to be profitable unless real crude oil prices are at least $70 to $95 per barrel (2005 dollars)...

For three million barrels a day that require 2 barrels of water for every barrel of oil. We use 20 million barrels of oil a day now and water wastage in the west is just stupid. You can't reuse the water after you process out shale oil, it's toxic.

Jeez, You won't die if you don't get your
McFatass into your SUV and over to Burger Boob's for Cheezwhiz covered fries for three days. You WILL die if you don't get water after three days.
