Hey you are talking about CNN, the quintissential MSM source not tied to broadcast media, what did you expect?

[Madpaddy]

I suppose I expected them to not draw attention to the matter in the first place.

[Tanada]

How are they drawing attention, I take this as trying to sooth the masses with the same old crud. Everyone has been hearing for weeks how their are refinery problems as the cause of the high price of gasoline.

Hey pip, Since you work with the refiners can you answer a question for me. What is the real difference to refiners between light sweet and heavy sour crude with respect to current refinery capacity? I am currently of the understanding that most refining infrastructure is geared for light sweet and will need substantial retrofitting to handle heavy sour crude.

Thanks for any enlightenment.

is that billion a typo? $1,000,000,000 for a part of a refinery? No wonder they aren't building new ones.

Oh the irony,

With heavy crude we get all the ingredients to make more roads but less of the fuel to put in the cars to drive on them.

I like that...
