Re: yeah - it does look odd, but...

I'm sorry if my (perhaps) ignorance frustrates you, but I am here to learn as well as opine.

In some issues I have to bow to your longer involvement and more extensive research in these matters, but only because it does look well researched. Like you quote .. "Question everything."

The issue of companies not wanting to put a pipeline through a landmine infested country though I do not see as a barrier. Afterall, it is not the executives and share holders who will be out there building the damn thing, they will be just reaping the profits. The people out there are just a bunch of savages with towels on their heads who will work for 5p a day, and what does it matter if a few of them get blown up?

Considerations like that have never really stopped the oil industry doing amazing stupid things before as you well know.
