The Mississippian and Pennsylvanian mainly. These Era's taken together are known as the Carboniferous. About 100 Million years before the Mesozoic. "The Age of Reptiles" When you said we run our cars on dinosaurs. Most educated people would chuckle at that thought. Mostly plants that lived in shallow swamps. That's what we burn in our vehicles.

Now stop worrying about my inverted "one" and understand we need to get off oil. The quicker it goes to 10 dollars a gallon. The better off we all will be in the long run.

The people that would be the most significantly impacted by $10 a gallon, would be the poor and middle class. Which by the way are the ones that are going to get creamed when the Bush Tax Cuts sunset. I thought the Dems claimed to be for the working man?

People in the Middle and Western States do a lot more driving because things are more spread out.
