A liter is what? About a quart? You're close to the predicted $5 a
gallon already.
1 gallon [US, liquid] = 3.785 411 784 liter
That would be 4.58 per gal. Looks like canada will win the race to $5.
Drilling in all of Alaska, off the coast of Calif., the Gulf of Mexico
and the Eastern Seaboard will solve the price problem.
No, actually it wouldn't. Oil prices are driven by many more things
that availability, we have a small percentage available, esp. in the
short term, and the environmental disaster would be beyond belief. Of
course, BP, Shell, Chevron, Exxon-Mobile would disagree. And you trust
them over someone who's job it is to protect the environment, right?
