To me TIME is the most important resource above or below ground. I don't know how the coal thing went , was too young , but i saw and paid attention to the windmill race. Rushing always leads to mistakes or accidents.

Unfortunately for us, rushing things is a critical element to the oil companies business models. They need to be continously installing new wells to account for the rapid decrease of gas production after the wells are initiated. It's all about maximizing short term profits. If they can't rush, they'll just pack up and take their high paying jobs back down to West Virginia or Wyoming. Or so they say.
