You are right. I stand corrected. Writing too fast and thinking too little.

I have been wondering for a long time why some of our own defense 
officials do not
put more emphasis on finding a good substitute for oil and worry less 
about where
more oil is to come from.  Our people are ingenious. New discoveries 
are all around
us, and when we have to make them, we nearly always do.
