I've asked and now Cam has asked. Please answer the question. Otherwise we're just wasting valuable time that could be spent on drilling. (g)

You might want to be a little careful with your statistics as well. Stats on oil reserves, proven and otherwise, are notoriously malleable. For instance, they never really know how much oil is down there until the well goes dry. At the same time, old unproductive wells that no longer produce get re-opened and, using new technology, produce significant quantities of oil. And I'll continue to wait.
