This is a very interesting subject. A few weeks back someone posted a link to a "Seven Sisters" documentary. I viewed all 4. They were very thought provoking and pretty accurate with all they presented but they left out a lot, an awfully lot, that did not mesh with their point of view.

If you really want to be knowledgeable about oil and its history this is a must read:

The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money & Power by Daniel Yergin | 9781439110126 | Paperback | Barnes & Noble

The only way to describe this book is awesome. It is not ideological but more historical/academic which I really liked. It is basically a world history of energy/politics from the 1850's and although very long and detailed you will not want to put it down. A very enjoyable read.

If you want to be knowledgeable about oil/energy this is a great place to start.

No, there aren't, but that is the new rumor...

I'm thinking air frog might have some available.:eek:

Happy Halloween.

I thought that when Emirates placed their last big order they said they were going to replace a lot of their old ones with new ones, so maybe some there too...?

Happy Halloween fellow ghouls and goblins!

So, E-175's on BOM-BHJ then? :D

Got to my "room" at the Roosevelt last night.

A bed. A lamp. A TV bolted to the wall. Bathroom door wouldn't open all the way because the bed was blocking it.

This "room" is so small, I have to go outside to change my mind.

That looks like "fumes".....Is she on the Airbi now?
