Offshore Drilling

Children are alleged not to be able to think ahead, but adults don't
have that excuse. Isn't it obvious that after we exhaust our oil
supply, we will be at the mercy of countries like Russia, Iran, and
Iraq, that still have plenty of oil? Why do you think we have a
"Strategic Oil Reserve"? We need to stop using oil!

Also obvious is the fact that the more oil we burn, the worse the
climate will get, leading to more hurricanes, sea level rise, loss of
food supplies (all of our foods are adapted to today's climate), and
loss of wildlife (upon which everything we need depends).

Offshore drilling threatens our food supply, won't lower gas prices,
and will (as we quickly exhaust our supply) in the long run make us
MORE dependent on foreign oil!

humans ("pure habitat"). Want to help? (I spent the previous 8
years fighting auto dependence and road construction.)

Fascinating if not redundant editorial...I found this interesting
article about "CLIMATE" changes as you indicate above...seems airline
emissions have a tremendous impact. I am glad I don't fly....like some
armchair computer environmentalists.

Do you expect them to DRIVE to Scandinavia to pick up their Nobel Prizes?
Geesh!

A true environmentalist would take a sailboat, or, at the very least,
his wife's sailboat.

A TRUE environmentalist would get the certificate e-mailed and the
monetary reward wired. Or swim.

I just don't expect them to be a hypocrite like Mike Vandeman. I like
straight talkers with no riddles...mike sorta reminds me of the vegan
who binges on McBurgers at night...

For a man with a Doctorate in Psychology, you need a shrink in the worst
way.

Your post is 1.) a load of ****, and 2.) a non-sequitur. Ask your shrink.

A true environmentalist is merely a human. Expecting more of him is
just plain silly.
