BP Gusher In Gulf of Mexico...

I was just watching the live camera feed of the broken deepwater oil well head in the Gulf of Mexico.  BP is trying desperately to cap the well or to stop its flow.  On the surface hundreds of boats and thousands of people are trying to contain the oil that is escaping.

And a thought occurred to me:  Man! The earth seems almost desperate to give us that oil.  There's no hint of scarcity in the rate at which the oil is gushing out of that well head.  It's almost like mankind is supposed to have oil and to use it to improve the quality of our life.
