There's also a very large field mapped out in northern michigan, that's a Shell Oil secret (oops!!). There are many such discoveries already made and in waiting.

The strategic plan is to use everybody else's oil first ad then start sucking up our reserves. That is from lessons learned from the long supply lines of WWII.

That supply line lesson is why the Inerstate Highway System has been built.
