Amazing, you must be drunk, and a hostile drunk to have missed all the humor on this thread.

LOL, you really must be wasted, that was a funny remark that I made about Ghia, and it led to a number of humorous posts.

Drinking isn’t serving you well tonight.

You seem to hung-over on this drinking thing. Let me guess your a “Fancy 49rs” fan.

It is pretty clear that you are drunk, and angry, a bad drunk.

Look at your posts on this thread and this wild ranting and attacking.

The refineries didn't totally shut down and the didn't have any place to store the oil.

Every empty gas station was filled with gasoline and at one time there were 19 tankers in L.A. harbor with no place to unload.

In 72 I had given up our allotment with Union Oil because they had gone to unleaded gas and it was seizing up the valves in our small Wisconsin engines but until the 74 crunch I was able to buy bulk delivery on the open market.

The only thing that saved my ass was we worked on almost every gas station and So. Calif Refinery in the 1st 2/3 of the last Century and a good friend who built and demoed gas stations was busy tearing down stations the were marginal and if the tanks had any gas in them he would call me and I would have a few hours to pump them out and haul the gas to our tanks before he turned the tanks over and dumped it.

In 74 the environmental wackos weren't in force and no one cared how much gas you dumped.

I finally hooked up with a distributor I knew in San Diego and he had a 500,000 gallon allotment for a school district that they didn't completely use and he would deliver me a truck and trailer of gas and diesel every month or 2 to L.A..

all the wells on Huntington Beach are gone but there is an oil platform off of Seal beach which taps a portion of that field.

That was an interesting post, it was interesting to hear the different theories and stories from behind the scenes, those Brown and Root guys weren’t buying the mainline story either.

I wonder if Al Gore owns the mineral rights under his palatial estate in California? He would be willing to develop the oil reserves there - for a price.

And we need to start refining our own and build some refineries.

The US has more refining capacity than the fuel we use. We have not built a new refinery for 3 decades but we spent that time expanding and upgrading the ones we have. The US is now a net refined product exporter because we refine more than we use ourselves.

I remember .29 ethyl. And it was .27 on sale. I named my Oldsmobile “Ethyl” because she sure liked ethyl more than regular.
