The captain's always willing to go down with the ship when he's standing on the shore.

I'm sure profits won't budge as prices and demand goes up--but as soon as someone figures out something to ween the global economy off oil, Exxon will be sucking toes to get a piece of it.  This will happen whether he simply changes his position, or the board fires him and someone else does it.

Silly tough-guy jibberish.

that they were never going to catch up to BPAmoco in terms of being a "green" petroleum company.  Hedging your bets on the Flat Earthers might give Exxon a short-term bump in stock price (I'm sure the bravado will too) but in time the market will see it with CowsEatGrass there.
