I'm looking into the truth of this now, but either way, it's interesting to see it.

/edit below this line * * *
 jeez this guy goes on an on.
If they could edit it down to about 30 minutes it'd be good. But he says some shocking stuff in here anyway. If you have a lot of time check it out. Otherwise, the *facts* he's giving are as follows.
  • there is enough oil in Alaska to use in the US the next 200 years
  • crude oil was chosen in the 60s as a method of controlling the world
  • gasoline could be less than 1.50/gallon within the next year
He says a bunch of alarmist stuff, like America will crumble in the next few months if we don't do anything (this came out last year so HA), but from the research I've done, the numbers he's giving for the oil production are all true.

They're gonna be really sorry they didn't choose rutabagas.

I would have gone with boobies.

I just spelled it wrong.
