What you are saying is that I want all drilling stopped now, which of course, is bullshit... What I actually said is you don't want any drilling in new areas. Seems to be true. trying to conserve some of the remaining oil we have You're never indicated you're ever want drilling in new areas, not now or ever. So if your opposition is based on saving it for the future, that seems to be a new argument for you. lying to them that drilling now will bring down gas prices....an outright lie.... Its not a lie to say drilling will add to supply and that will make prices lower than they would be w/o that supply. "BTW conservation of course reduces demand but does not provide any more oil." Conservation will stretch out the oil we have remaining Yes, but thats not actually what you said earlier. drilling does not provide more oil It gets it out of the ground where we can use it. ....oil cannot be created, we have all we're going to get. In a sense yes. However, as price advances and technology changes, new sources become economic.
