Guess I am still not understanding your point.  The BTC pipeline goes from
Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan.  Getting oil to the Med for shipment to the West.  I
was agreeing that that other pipeline doesn't make much sense if they are
really talking about Caspian oil.  BTC is supposed to reach 1 million
barrels per day which will be pretty good.  First Caspian oil not to go
through Russia.
