So......investors act like humans but oil industry managers don't? Workers in other industries are competitive, aggressive, imaginative, manipulative and ambitious but oil industry managers are not?

For there to be a meaningful dialogue between folks on the gubmit regulatory end (like me, frankly) and folks on the business/regulated end, there needs to be honesty. The innocent Pollyanna costume looks out of place on industry. I'm not saying that industry is evil. But don't try to look intelligent while you're trying to convince me that greed and human nature are not at work in your industry.
