* But Were Afraid To Ask.

Remember what I was just saying (genius me) about the growing professionalism of blogs? Well, Mark From Mexico jerks one out into the cheap sheets with a comprehensive essay on the problems with, and promise of, extracting crude oil from shale.

Must reading if you have any interest in this at all. At the very least, you'll be able to pose as a geologist at a cocktail party, and you've all heard the stories about the crazy kind of tail geologists get.
