That's what the NCPA says anyway. And let's face it, they think drinking cyanide is a good idea.

Their findings are drawn from physical evidence of past climate cycles that have been documented by researchers around the world from tree rings and ice cores, stalagmites and dust plumes, prehistoric villages and collapsed cultures, fossilized pollen and algae skeletons, titanium profiles and niobium ions, and other sources.

In other words...actual facts.

So assuming we have more oil left than was previously thought, why do you want to turn places like Alaska into Industrial wastelands, instead of availing of technologies which already exist, and which are kinder to the environment, and free to the consumer?

If you ever saw the Documentary series on Yergin's book or can get to see it, it comes highly recommended. He charts some fascinating coincidences about the two world wars and oil. Possible compelling reasons as to why it was fought and why Germany failed.

Something that I was always told was that we are only ever told about the prospect of known reserves lasting and that oil companies generally freeze any exploration past a certain point. The notion that oil is scarce helps buoy up its commodity price amongst other things.

Oil companies exaggerate their reserves in order to keep their stock price high. They would be unable to secure the scale of loans and investments that they currently do if their stock prices crashed.

"More right wing nonsense of the type discredited by the sites I mentioned.

Take your first weblink for instance to the NCPA:

The NCPA is in reality

"A right wing think tank with programs devoted to privatization in the following issue areas: taxes, Social Security and Medicare, health care, criminal justice, environment, education, and welfare."

Please stop propogating lies, you nasty Texan, Bush supporting liar."
