Love this article on oil.

If you can, read all you can on the Dakota's oil boom. Its AMAZNING what we're getting out of the Bakken.

Also, the natural gas vrs. coal production/usage stuff is cool too.
Doesn't bode well for KY, but natural gas is soooo much cheaper and cleaner........

FWIW, per capita gas consumption in the U.S. is flat, or declining.

At the same time, the U.S. is producing more oil than ever, with HUGE new sources beginning to come online.

Now if we could just do something about the refinery bottleneck........
