Garfield on the oil crisis
A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in Australia. ~~~ Well, there's a very simple answer. ~~~ Nobody bothered to check the oil. ~~~ We just didn't know we were getting low. ~~~ The reason for that is purely geographical. ~~~ Our OIL is located in ~~~ Bass Strait ~~~ East Queensland Shale Fields ~~~ Canning Basin ~~~ Perth Basin and North-West Continental Shelf ~~~ Our DIPSTICKS are located in Canberra!!! Any questions??? NO? I didn't think so. |

Our oil is rubbish when it comes to make engine oil. it's to thin.
We can't even make decent bitumen from it for our roads.

Actually, dipsticks were made obsolete years ago - users can't be trusted to check anything.
