Subject: | US Emergency Oil Reserves, and such... |

going to dip into their emergency oil reserves and release 30M barrels or
so... (exact quantity doesn't matter really)
Anyhow... was still working on my post apocalypse shadowrun campaign, and
was thinking... that wasn't really something I ever took into account...
that there would be a vast storage of some resources (oil, gold, etc)
Doesn't really matter where such resources are kept, but was wondering if
anbody would know of what sort of things (like the oil, like the gold) and
roughly the quantity that the US has stashed in the event of an emergency?
Just thinking because something like a massive oil reserve that survived a
nuclear attack would be about the perfect place for a new settlement to grow
from (assuming people knew it was there)... likewise a place where something
like a massive oil reserve was, that got hit, would be a devestated
wasteland from the resulting fire, smoke, environmental damage, etc...
Thanks for any input,
Augustus`
