Want to guess how much crude was moved from terminals in La and

You can support this claim?

Why do you think he can't, David?

--Hrmmm?..

I don't know that he can't, I am asking.

I see that you're again dodging a simple question about the basis
for your opinion(s) regarding this matter.

Can you support it?

To a certain extent, though 'resources' for that information
are somewhat limited. Unfortunately for you, the oil companies
have an established record of corrupt business practices by
energy companies, such as Enron, to 'artificially' inflate the
price of 'energy'..

There's no "in other words" to it..

--Do I need to point you to the Enron case and court records?

Nope. Since Enron wasn't in play during the time of the initial
statement that all of this oil was sitting in tankers during the energy
crisis that occurred WAY before it appeared. Also, Enron has nothin' to
do with oil. (See above)
Rather hamhanded, and rather lame attempt to move the discussion
into left field (or heck probably completely out of the ballpark.
Especially since the question wasn't asked of you in the first place.
