Diggin' for........Oil?

Hi again, it's me Bigdog!!!! And have I got news for you. During the pass two days, Ms.Nitzke came into teach us about digging for oil, and let me tell you it's a lot more complicated than it sounds. First you need three things to give you an idea of where to dig. First, you need pressure in the ground for the oil to get pushed in. Two, a trap to hold the oil underground. And three, a resevior to hold the oil. If you have all three of those overlapping on a map those are places to dig. Now, just to clarify this isn't the kind of treasure hunt dig. This is the giant machinery kind of dig. And let me tell you digging for oil is not cheap. First you have to pay money every time you move the drill, how many meters you dug, and if you broke any of the drills. Now, many oil fields can be found in Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Texas. So how you ask, was I able to do this without ditching school and buying a fancy plane ticket to Austin? Well, Ms.Nitzke set up squares covered with tinfoil and you would have to poke through it with your "drill" andtry and find the "oil"(syrup) under the earth(kitty litter). And you would have to calculate you money need plus your resevior space and your recovorey rate. So once again, you see that you can learn while having fun at the same time. Catch you kit kats on the flipside
