Can we all have a good laugh at Salmond?

Would that help much though considering the majority of oil production and consumption happens outside of the EU? ...

Eh, probably not. I was just amused by the idea of the EU fining OPEC several billion euro and telling it to stop messing around with the Oil prices...!

Ah OK I missed the pun then.

I can dig out so many posts from people on reddit telling me how stupid I was that oil could ever drop below $100. That I was 'bullying' by saying that is a concern.

I'm going to go around shouting it from the roof tops so hopefully people aren't so idealistic in future. Idealism kills people, it's why idiots don't vaccinate their children or why someone might vote for Corbyn.

Are you claiming that you accurately predicted the fall in oil price and the reasons behind it?

Not at all, but I've been short brent sweet crude light, so it didn't come as a shock to me at all. If I had been so certain about it I'd had made millions rather than just a few k.

The fact was that when you suggested that having a plan that centers around oil being at a historic high, that such a plan might be flawed, you were branded a scaremonger. You were labelled a bully by some of the pro independence types just for suggesting it might rain.

So you're crowing from the rooftops on winning a coin toss?

No, not at all.

That basing your entire economic future on a coin toss coming up heads every day is very stupid.

I dunno, the rare Lesser North American Sale is well know for it's oil rich furs which are greatly prized by the wealthiest society members for it's ability to produce spontaneous sarcasm in regular users.
