Default what happens when gas runs out

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "nightjar" nightjar@insert my
surname here.uk.com saying something like:

No reserve is 100% obtainable.


We could, however, do a lot better than we do now, if anybody wanted to
spend the mony on it, which they may well do in the future.


I'd be surprised if extraction technology doesn't improve greatly, with
the spur of rising prices. I find it scandalous that many fields are
abandoned with substantial quantities of oil still in them. Cost, I
suppose.
