I am trying to remember my college physical geography. Is a new mountain
range in formation or is one plate just over-riding the other?

The Mexicans weren't (aren't) as smart as the Arabs. The Arabs sent their
brightest students to western schools to learn the oil business before they
nationalized the western oil operations.

The US would buy all the oil the Mexicans could pump except they put
someone's idiot brother-in-law in charge and their output is ridiculously
low. Mexico's greatest oil exports were....... in the early 1920's.

-------- -------- -------- -------- --------.

Mercedes Benz sold diesels, but not very many. Peugeot did too then
you had VW and Oldsmobile. But none of them burned diesel fuel like the
PowerStrokes and Duramaxes and Dodge Ram Cumminses. They are the
consumers of diesel fuel, not the piddling few Benzes.

Studebaker and Checker Cab offered diesels too back then. You could
get a factory Perkins, I think, in a Lark. Checker Cab had a British
Ford engine optional I think. They sold very few, but neither did Benz.

Maybe we should jack truckers' costs to force freight back on the
railroads where it belongs anyway.
