I say we just swrew the envirmentalists and drill for that oil. <br /> <br />( Can't even drive to work any more) <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I agree 100% to drill for the oil and say screw the enviormentalists. What do we lose by drilling? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Why do you need to drill in sensitive areas when there are plenty of subsitutes for oil that could be developed? In Britain a growing number of people make diesel oil from used cooking oil. There are now a couple of plants opened which do this on a commercial scale. In ma European countries they make bio diesel from a variety of plants, notably rape and sunflower. Recently 'The Economist' pointed out that if the US put its mind into developing these fuels it could be self sufficient in oil. Some of the smarter members of the Republican party are starting to wake up to the economic and security benefits this would bring. And it would be more environmentally friendly too! <br />[/quote]There is not enough used cooking oil too make enough fuel too matter. The big secret behind these fuels is that they cost more to make than buying oil. The government should keep its nose out of this; if bio diesel is so good, people will buy it. If they don't, don’t force them. Read my above post for the truth on this sensitive area. <br />James[C):-)]
