You know, I thought I remembered that from somewhere, being the largest refiner.

If refining capability is the 'long pole in the tent' streamwise... why WOULD they be motivated to solve the choked flow that keeps record profits close at hand.

The icing on the cake is that the oil companies get to twist the knife in the enviornmental backside by blaming EPA policies for keeping new refineries at bay, as well as driving costs thru the roof by having to comply with forced regulations.

Frankly, I think the liberals in Kahleefoorniahhh have it coming. Of course, they are so busy blaming Bush, they cannot see that it is all their own fault anyway.
