I see et, these native peoples who live thier on the resources of the land are like loggers to the couch potato environmentalist crowd. It's nice to know you know what is best for all the rest of the people of world. The god et has pontificated.

anwr.org Well they are Native Americans what the hell do they know about the place they live. et has been within a thousand mile maybe and is thus far more qualified.

A logger is a funny comparison. There is no old growth or even new growth in ANWR that a logger could be concerned with. The people who live on the land there in harmony with nature who have seen the development of other oil projects and judge it not to be a threat, hmmmm... they are like loggers.

The couch potato environmentalist knows better.

What life is ANWR teaming with and what important eco role does it play that disturbing .00000001% would change in any way. Do you know what a dobber is? Well I think if I throw a dobber in Long Island Sound I would have an equal effect. I guess we should ban all dobbers.

et, I just thought of this perspective. You say no drilling and increase car mileage by several percent. But since you personally dislike fluorescents you should have the right to not use bulbs that are 400% more efficient. So should I say a law should be passed to make you use fluorescents. My argument has over 1000% more conservation on it's side. Think about it.

pbase.com These bulbs are cool and they have a very natural light balance over See pbase.com for actual measurement. See third row...
