Dear Andrew, Thank you for the weblinks. We will read in earnest.
I had the opportunity to work in the oil and energy industry for almost twenty years at many of the big petroleum companies (you know all of them. During my tenure as field rep, I was told we have ample supply for the next 50 to 100 years - plenty of time to plan - and find new supply. I remember thinking that was not a very long time at all!! To me that was not very long time bbecause I think about my children and grandchildren. Thanks for the weblinks! P.
