Re: Drilling in ANWR. Thanks and a tip of the hat to MM on PfP for the following. Perspective: Size of a postage stamp = 1 square inch Square Inches in a square foot = 144 size of a one quarter acre house lot = 1,568,160 sq inches. ratio of 10 postage stamps to house lot = 10/1,568,160 = 0.00001 Size of ANWR = 19,000,000 acres Ratio of drilling footprint to ANWR 2,000/19,000,000 = 0.00001 Question: Would a fastidious homeowner believe that his yard was trashed if there was a bare spot the size of ten postage stamps off in the corner?
