Believe it or not, a truly comprehensive answer to this question was too large to put it in the Q&A section. Please view the Articles category in the Downloads page, and view or download the Oil article. Please let me know if you find it helpful, or if you still have questions.

Thank you for adding to the resources available for your Fellow BAC Members.
