	I was cleaning the garage when I found some 10W-30 oil, unopened, still sealed in its container. It was bought 7 years ago and hasn't been used at all, just forgotten. Can this oil be used in my next oil change or should I just recycle it at the local recycling facility?

For gasoline engines, the owner's manual will probably recommend an API quality grade (www.api.org) like SG, SH, SJ, or SL (best), and if your can of oil is at least that good, then you can use it without problems, provided it's also of the right viscosity range and you shake it up.

Most refiners specify 3-5 years shelf life for plain dino oils depending on the storage conditions.

But "new" it wasn't as good as most of today's oils. I'd probably use it as make-up oil between changes, personally.

	As for what's in the ground, we're talking buried deep within the> earth with little exposure to oxygen gas or water. Tell me you are kidding about your comment, "with little exposure to oxygen gas or water". Seriously, removing water is a huge part of the oil refining process, and water and air are routinely used as aids in the extraction of hydrocarbons.
