Look Out Canada...

Look out Canada. We're coming for your oil shales next.

This picture of Oil Depletion in Saudi Arabia shows how close we are to running out of oil in one of the world's (at one time) largest wells. There are still a few other sources in Saudi Arabia, and they mention something about the vertical scale being exaggerated, but still....Wow.

We're just about out of that sweet, sweet grease that powers our economy. Thank goodness we still have plenty of coal we can strip mine out of the North Eastern United States (and the aforementioned Canadians who must be harboring weapons of mass destruction somewhere).
