Sorry, but the books of "big oil" are cooked.

Yawn.

Last I knew, there were about seven "generally accepted" legal accounting
practices.
Within the limits imposed by law, businesses routinely adopt that one that
best serves the interest of the business .... often changing from reporting
period to reporting period as situations and markets change. Nothing wrong
or illegal about doing that ... it's prudent and responsible to do so in the
best interests of the stockholders. To do otherwise may land you in jail,
especially now-a-days.

Well, in Green People Land, which is just north of Fucia People Land,
we can account very well.

We can account on our fingers, toes, extremities and occasionally
internal organs.
