Fish
Good to see your still in - it's been a couple of months since my last post and I reckon you understand why.
I found this conversion table for oil and gas but could not paste it with the gridlines.
They reckon you learn something everyday - ineteresting fact the last sentence.

Patience is a virtue - might be a couple of month before I find something else educational

Cheers

Gas in perspective
1TCF of gas could power the average family vehicle around the earth (40 000 kilometres) in excess of 10 million times.
