As for how many olympic size swimming pools of oil we use everday, I posted it so long ago, I have to do the math again -

20,000,000 barrels/day x 42gal/barrel / 660,000gal/pool =  1272.72 olympic size pools of oil per day, and that's just the US.

Today's question: what state has the only cities in the US (world I believe) to contain an extinct volcano within the city limits (there are 2)?

Phoenix is considered the "kidnap" capitol of the US.
