I am hearing through a colleague that back in 2006 the US discovered a MASSIVE amount of oil under colorado... and supposedly the gov kept a lid on it since back in the 1930's!. They estimate there could be up to 2 TRILLION barrels of oil there - which overshadows all the middle east by billions!!!
been reading about it :

Dunno if this is old news to you guys but i was just passed it and thought if this is the case this could change the world... russia and the middle east will suddenly have a serious rival on their hands... oil prices might drop through the floor as competition heats up...on the other hand it could cause increased tension if the US starts to wave its sabre in the knowledge it can be self reliant for the forseeable future....
Maybe that V8 wont be so expensive to run after all
Very interesting
