Wow Phil that was quick, now I have to waste a little more time and see how the numbers work, might take a me awhile.

If I have done the math right and the earth was made up entirely of oil it would take 196609382 years to use it all up, to many variables to even consider going any further at this time, maybe after I get my prescription refilled
