KUDLOW: Is it possible that the ANWR drilling fields could yield twice as much as experts think, the same way the Prudhoe drilling field has? I mean, when they started Prudhoe--What?--in the late '70s, people were talking about a nine-month shelf life. It turns out the new estimates have gone from nine billion barrels of oil to 20 billion. Is it possible that the ANWR field could produce the same unexpected windfall? Can we assume at today's prices the Prudhoe field yields $1.1 trillion ($55 x 20 billion barrels) for the US Treasury.
