Max,

Have you looked at the UN_GODLY earnings of the Oil Companies. They're
breaking all time records! The whinning is part of the cover-up for
people like you that buy into it!

Thom, I got run out of the Oil Patch, lost my job, all my neighbors
lost their jobs, most gave away money at the closings to dump their
houses, bankruptcies galore when oil fell like a rock in the eighties.
The rest of the country was in a huge boom feeding on cheap oil. Oil
companies wouldn't sink a hole because they couldn't recoup costs.
Operating wells were shut in all over the country.

I certainly didn't hear anything but gloating from the non oil people
back then.

So what exactly is an UN_GODLY profit. I know what a hellacious loss
is. I lived through that.
