I guess checking $1 bills for traces of perfume beats trying to extract
the coke out of the 100s...

political office... at this time....

Higher prices for oil are making resources that didn't use to be
profitable suddenly look very good, Alberta's oil sands for one...

http://www.energy.gov.ab.ca/89.asp

In a few years as all these new oil sources come online we are going to
be facing a glut of oil again... unless the government does something to
screw it up.

And I try to NEVER underestimate the power of our government to screw
things up.
