DAVID ASMAN (FOX BUSINESS ANCHOR): Once we get through this spike in oil — which by the way, the U.S. has now become the energy capital of the world. Today we just got news from the [Energy Information Administration], which is a big energy information source, that exports of U.S. oil and refined goods is now up to 12.7 million barrels per day. That is the highest in record. We have blown past all of those previous records in terms of exporting more oil to the rest of the world. So, we are now the energy capital of the world. That has been a good thing that's come out of this.
