      Actually, it's your own fault - I used standard notations but you used those arcane metrics !!! That makes your claims difficult to understand

      I have a thumbs of rule that says that a gallon is 3 ltres and a mile is 1,8 km - how do you come from km and litres to miles and galls ?

      Oh, and no, nobody loves you - belive me, I know the feeling

        do you know what the word disrupted means? Are you seriously claiming Iraqi oil production has not been disrupted by the embargo and then the war?

        Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

            Surely - do you ? - if you had said Iraq war no 1, I might had agreed with you, but the second war has not disrupted anything - actually it has opened a big but unreliable source.

            • Iraqi oil production were disrupted by the UN embargo, the war and the insurgency. What part of this statement do you not understand?

                What part of 'the second' is challenging to your comprehension, especially since you specified it?

                  Wait... according to that other test, I'm a sociopath. Nobody loves me?



                  Anyway, you said that US cars average 8km per liter:

                  1 gal = 3.78 liters.
                  8km = 4.97 miles.

                  4.97*3.78=18.78mpg

                  So I rounded down. It, you know, makes my argument look better.

                  The other half of that sentence implies that everybody else averages 20km per liter:

                  1 gal = 3.78 liters.
                  20km=12.42miles

                  12.42*3.78=46.94mpg

                  Both of those statements are, you know, wrong.
