Widespread Panic: Oil spill, oil usage
By James Anderson in Widespread Panic: Matt Johansen
Some mental lubricant for you all.
 
The most recent estimates of the oil spew place the rate between 35,000 and 60,000 barrels a day. Most Gulf wells are designed for extracting 30,000 - 40,000 barrels a day. <http://www.offshore-mag.com/index/article-display/24567/articles/offshore/volume-58/issue-8/news/production/managing-high-well-productivity-in-the-gulf-of-mexico.html>  The US Government uses 440,000 barrels of oil a day <http://www.peak-oil-news.info/military-oil-usage-statistics/> . Yep, it takes about 10-15 Deepwater Horizons to feed our military exploits and trusty postal service.

I bet if a guy owned a fantasy sports team, he could use that "rock/paper/scissors" method to determine draft picks and lineups, couldn't he?

Great blogs, Mr. Johansen...well spoken and informative. Keep up the great work.
