I read somewhere that if we all had cars that averaged 70mpg we would become an oil exporting nation overnight. Interesting Canada was against the war.

The U.S. imports 11.5% of its oil from the Middle East. Most of the Mideast oil exports go to Europe. The U.S. could easily cut its Mideast imports to 0 by increasing its supply from its #1 provider: Canada. Canada supplies 10% of U.S. with its oil imports.

Interesting little sidebar on oil. Forbes writer Paul Klebnikov www.forbes.com/global/2002/1028/024_print.html says Iraqi reserves may exceed those of Saudi Arabia. Fields producing in Iraq have the world's lowest lifting costs, what it costs to suck it out the ground, Iraq's reservoir is so shallow that it costs under a buck per barrel, compared to 2.50 for Saudi and three to four bucks for Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea. Plus I read in the paper the other day that California imports 28% of its oil from Iraq. Apparently the type of light sweet crude that they produce there works well in our refineries. Light sweet crude? Do they have oil tasters? Anyway it's easy to see why Bush, Cheney and Blair are willing to kill babies to get at Iraqi oil. Ted Ps. Its interesting to me in this anti-war campaign no one has suggested boycotting gasoline. That would take care of it. If we all just said fuck it. Parked our cars in the middle of the road and walked away.
