That is a good reason, but it is no reason to lie about the fauna and flora that lives by the drilling sites. And if flora is your main concern, there are other acreage that could be preserved in the place of the minute area that would be drilled; which look better and actually have sensitive flora and is actually liveable during the summer.

Liveable for whom? ANWR is a habitat for animals and insects, not humans. So you don't have to worry about the conditions. And as I reported previously, according the Nat. Geo., the caribou like dropping their calves in the ANWR because the mosquitoes are blown off by the ocean winds and present less of a problem than further inland. So from the caribou's perspective, the ANWR is a resort spa. And comb and Al and I are trying to keep that way.

Think of this way....how would you like if they starting drilling for oil all over the Dells? Hopefully, you would be upset and if so, then you know how the caribou feel when there is talk of drilling in the ANWR.
