"The net is every US barrel helps, " How about a conservation program???? Is that not patriotic? Is that not sensible? We have 230 million vehicles....if each saved one gallon a day, that would be the equivalent of 5.8 million barrels of production. Make it 3 gallons a week and it is 2.5 million barrels a day..... Just one gallon a week, ie just 15 miles less of driving, would be the equivalent of 821,000 barrels a day... How much easier can it be???? Bush's very optimistic estimates for ANWR are 670,000 barrels a day.... a no brainer, don't you think? So what is he doing to encourage conservation......squat!!!
