Squish the Rocks and Get the Oil!

This "oil crisis" is really bugging me, but like some other folks that have been blogging about it lately, I'm beginning to think this problem might be just a tiny bit good. For too long we have been coast on foreign oil, going along our merry way, but now with prices climbing and the future looking gloomier, we Americans need to put on our thinking caps and the old castoff coats of ingenuity that have been hanging on rusty nails for decades now, get busy, and find a way to use our own natural resources. We need to push ourselves away from the Middle Eastern oil banquet table, and start taking care of our own needs. There is some hope that a few people have found in the sandstone in Utah and some other western states. There are some ideas flowing about how to squish the oil out or heat it up underground and extract the oil. Hey, I think this is great, but let's get going on it--the sooner the better! I predict that in the next year or eighteen months lots of new ideas for oil, alternative fuels, and innovative cars will be popping up all over. I love American will power and ingenuity! Let's Go!
