    Drummond Geometry

    Everyday I use Drummond geometry, sort of, a very small segment. But it's very profitable, and very simple. I too thought his course was a waste of time & money, but I wouldn't have found the nuggets if I hadn't waded through it. The same goes for Jack Hershey, there's gold nuggets in his...

    Where are all the 'Peak Oil' theorists? This is not a sarcastic thread

    According to the article "Sustainable Oil?" by Chris Bennett: "A significant reservoir of crude oil was discovered in the late ’60s, and by 1970, a platform named Eugene Island 330 was busily producing about 15,000 barrels per day of high-quality crude oil. By the late ’80s, the...
