Interesting article. For the sake of argument, lets not drill in alaska or anywhere else within the U.S. But the question still remains, How should we provide relief for the energy crisis? Do we decerease demand or increase supply? The pres. is trying to meet the needs of the american people. Opponents of the drilling still drive cars, ride on buses and fly in airplanes, which increases demand. Advocates of the drilling don't seem to have a plan for protecting the wilderness areas in question. I don't neccessarily agree with either side. I also don't see a viable solution for the negative impact each side has. Quite the pickle.. Thanks for sharing that article catman.
