Good. The more oil we pump, the less we import, the more we export (generally). Obviously different industries require different flavors of oil, but tight oil usually has great characteristics - light and sweet. A lot of people don't know this, but the oil industry was founded almost entirely by Americans, its good to see the US back on top.

I've had the pleasure of working for a large driller as a software engineer. The innovation in drill tech is unbelievable. I hope all of you get the chance to read about the upstream industry - phenomenal work being done. Oil is an industry where a ton of the knowledge is only documented in books or the minds of the workforce. so better yet, visit your local rig site.
