3rd quarter profit for Exxon Mobil was $100 billion. That is not a typo. In todays paper. Paper goes on to say: To put Exxon's performance into perspective, its third-quarter revenue was greater than the annual gross domestic product of some of the largest oil producing nations, including the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.

I thought so, too, until I read more carefully - Revenue was $100 Billion, but profits were only about $10 billion......[:0]
After the oil co. mergers, I think we really have an oil cartel.....[xx(]
