Sigh...
The Bakken oil rush email thing has been going around for years. It's overly optimistic and the information the original report (intended to sell investments) was based on incomplete information. The USGS actually says there is far less oil there. The most they might be able to recover is about 3 Billion Barrels which sounds great at first, but the US alone drinks up 10 Million every single day. Instead of "fuelling the American economy for 41 years", it wouldn't be enough for even 1 year.
Today, The actual output from Bakken is less than 1 million barrels per day.
