You know what I like about baseball? Almost everything, but most of all that anybody can play the game, once social impediments are removed. There is no biological, natural restriction on learning and playing the game. All the restrictions are social in nature and exist to be overthrown.
The first step is to distinguish between the social and natural... So like if the game is suspended because of rain, that doesn't mean the players don't know how to play the game. War is not a storm cloud. War is not a natural, biological, geological event. The arguments for petroleum scarcity are all disguised as geological, natural, scientific arguments. Lots of people have been right and wrong. Geologists were absolutely right that large supplies of petroleum would never be found below ground in Titusville, Pa., Spindletop, and East Texas, until large reserves of petroleum were found exactly there.
