Re: OT: The price of Gas..
I saw this when it was published in my society journal in October, 1980 to help educate people about oil and gas. For those who are interested:
The contents of a common barrel of crude:
Gasoline-------------- 46.2%
Fuel Oil-------------- 28.6%
Petrochemicals*----- 10.1%
Jet fuel--------------- 7.4%
Asphalt--------------- 4.0%
Kerosene------------- 2.1%
Lubricants----------- 1.6%
Petrochemicals include: pLastics, nylon, rayon, cosmetics, detergents, paint, drugs and tires.
