RE: [RC] overinflated corn prices/oil in shale - way OT! - Karen Franklin

While I'm not arguing for or against using FSA 333, or endorsing this
inventor, the thing to pay attention to about this article regarding oil
shales is this:  "obtained several kilograms of shale rock, CRUSHED IT,
heated it to about 200 F, added FSA and cold water, and then BANG! You
get this huge segment of oil on the top".  If this method worked,
imagine how obtaining the oil shale would change from a relatively
simple process of drilling a well, to a highly involved mining
operation. Most of these oil shale are not shallow.  A shallow well
(depending on the basin of course) is a mile deep.  An average well is
two miles deep.  Don't know about you guys, but I kinda like Utah the
way it is without adding more and bigger holes.
