Oil Shale...Energy Source?

As a country we are constantly on the search for the most effective way to import oil to run our society. As we reach the "end" of easily accessible oil reserves our sights have migrated to less readily accessible sources for this resource. One such resource is oil shale reserves located right in our own country, the only issue at this point is the extraction techniques available to make using these resources feasible. As newer techniques are developed resources that were previously deemed un-accessible now become a viable source of energy and oil for our society. Source (usgs).
