AND............dumping oh say 2 million barrels a day on the open market will do WONDERS for stabilizing prices.

AND.............finally........most of OUR oil comes from Canada.....and CANADA has some of the MOST strigent requirements for turning tar fields into OIL......

AND if most of our OIL comes from Canada.......and OUR oil sands and tar sands are 2 times as LARGE............WHAT do you suppose that will do for our oil reserves.....

Sooo, Canada supplies MOST of our oil?? Funked math in school, right. According to the figures you supplied (total for 2008), just under 21% came from Canada. Saudis are not far behind and neither is Venezuela. Yep, thems some good friends!

Hey, just keep thinking short-term. Nothing could go wrong now could it??
