A new link has been added to my "Data Links" page: US crude oil exports.

The embedded graph is more dramatic than the graph at the source because the embedded graph is "squished" left-to-right.



The Montana Bakken mini-boom began in 2000. The North Dakota Bakken boom began in 2007. The Bakken reached its stride between 2010 and 2014.

The Carpenters Should Have Covered "Metal Guru"

I can't imagine a more eclectic set of songs that takes you from deep sadness to outright laughter; what a roller coaster of emotions in the video below. And there's only one song that's a bit too syrupy for me. But nine out of ten ain't bad.

This is really quite a remarkable song set, or as they say now, "playlist." The best single year for music was 1969; the best decade, the 60's. I completely missed (that is, was absent during) the 70's and from what I can tell, it's been all downhill from there, with some exceptions (Lana Del Rey). Perhaps the best thing about this list: the wide range of soloists/groups and a most interesting selection from their immense discography.

One group is missing from the video below, but perhaps that's best.
