According to some scientist they found some oil underneath the Rocky Mountains. The supposed deposite was suppose to be a tremendous amount. I'm not sure exactly how much was there but it is the largest deposite of oil found on the planet. It seems that there is more oil there than all of OPEC combined. The deposite was found under the Presidency of George W. Bush and he ordered the drilling to take place. Yesterday, that started practice drilling but found a problem. The oil is holding the mountains up! So if they drill it out then the mountains my collapse all together. Of course, if they drill the oil it would drive the price of gas way down.
