Marty, I used to have several friends who worked for Greenpeace. I also know some others and have always worked around the tree huggers based on my NMFS work and other stuff. Actually, I don't really fault the enviros too much. Some of their ideas are good ones. But this whole ANWR stuff is just political. The Demos are trying to make it Bush's "Waterloo"...its absurd. We need the oil...we need the energy. I have been to ANWR (unlike 99% of the liberals who want to save it), I have seen the Alaska Pipeline. It is a modern, clean, engineering marvel. Oil drilling technology has improved so much, we could even slant drill National Parks and not even harm a butterfly. The choice is yours...$8 bucks a gallon for gas, or we improve domestic energy production. -John ps Saddam Hussain is awaiting your decision. He probably will be able to re-arm if we start buying his oil again like we did back in the late 1980s...
