Fuel Prices/ OT Perspective

[jdbubb at verizon.net (Dan Bubb)]

Probably less political than is popular to believe lately.

Go here:http://www.eia.doe.gov/neic/experts/contactexperts.htm
and read the paragraphs: 
What does it mean that oil is part of a "global" market?
and :
Can consumers reduce the revenues flowing to a certain country or countries by boycotting companies that have a history of importing from those countries? 

This link from the ever abrasive Spewey: http://www.omninerd.com/2006/05/17/articles/52 is particularly interesting reading. Not only since it partially explains the escalation of oil prices,but specifically since it shows the peak in Texas oil production was in 1974. 32 years ago! Interesting.
