Xeno: Your origninal post was to counter our British friend:

"OK -- I said that I'd stay out of the politics, but someone has chosen to issue a challenge:

the world will be out of the grades of oil that produce your gasoline within 40 years, well within my grandchildren's lifetimes."

Nothing you've posted has remotely established your point. His point remains valid. We should probably let this go, though. Most of us want to learn about Shade here.
