Now, if they just open it up and say, "take your time", it will probably take ten years. It would be critical to require production in the near term as a condition of the drilling to motivate drillers to move quickly. Amazing... we agree on something.

"We're not talking 10 years. If the bureaucratic red tape were eliminated, and drilling were conditioned on delivery beginning within 3 years, it could be done. Probably in 2" Even if they could drill and begin producing that quickly ( not possible ), how would they get the oil to us? Do you know where Anwar IS?

We should have drilled 10 years ago but now which comes online faster, green intitiatives or anwar? We're not talking 10 years. If the bureaucratic red tape were eliminated, and drilling were conditioned on delivery beginning within 3 years, it could be done. Probably in 2. A report done by the Bush administration that just came out this month says it will take ten years.........and not because of bureacratic red tape. You should read it.......you may learn something about what you so eagerly CONFLATE.
