Well when only one firm in Switzerland controlled 3 days worth of supply in the US most rational people would agree with you and not blame it on other factors.

Be nice. He's a democrat. If it seems good, it's good. If it seems bad, it's bad. No need for documentation, facts, reasoning, logic, etc., etc...

CharlieP a few short weeks ago made fun of a remark I madeabout offshore drillingrhetoric causing oil prices to drop. Of course he won't come on here and say he was wrong.
