  I see today Shell have chalked up the biggest set of profits in corporate history so they are certainly not experiencing any kind of recession. Rather...they have us by the short and curlies as we have no choice but to buy the stuff at artificially high prices. Of course they give us allsorts of baloney about lean times to come etc etc but no doubt they will cope with any downturn by letting staff go on a grandscale. They wont use the vast profits to secure these peoples jobs. Once upon a time companies did that. The profits got them through the lean times, but not now. Lean times come and the staff are the first to be slung out so that the profits can remain at the level required by the stockholders.
  
  Not only are the general prices artificially high, the prices in Dover are doubly doubly artificially high. But on the wide scale of all things oil, Dover is but a pinprick on the map.
