Yeah, but you're not sitting on several gazillion barrels of the stuff.

(And the way this so-called "Administration" is handling our energy policies, you wouldn't think we were, either.)

Could be. OTOH, what if the GUYS (vs guy) at the top were really convinced we were on the cusp of environmental disaster (global warming) as a result of the carbon emissions.

If they (all government) really felt that way, it might be easiest to force consumers into more efficient (lower emissions) vehicles by letting the price of fuel go up.

Also, remember any reduction in prices as a result of the release of reserves would be short-lived. So, any (yes, ANY) president looking to easy this issue before an election might wait until closer to election time before instituting such measures.

(If you couldn't tell, I'm prejudiced against all politicians since they all appear self-absorbed.)

All a bunch of BS. The planet has had ice ages and Hotter spells ever since the magma cooled. The planet sits on an axis that fluctuates between 23 and 23 and 1/2 degrees. In addition its orbit around the sun fluctuates from closer and neerer affecting the planet temp as well as the sunspots affecting the temp on the sun by thousands of degrees. The deserts we now have at times were on the shore or had lush plant life. Some of the mountains were below the oceans surface and some of the ones below the surface used to be above. Considering that there were also no effective ways of measuring the temp back then the worry of a few degrees is silly and to place the blame on man made activities is non scientific to say the least. If you want you can send all your money to Al Gore and the Soldrinya but quit sending mine.

It is a fact the earth is currently warming. I think it is BS that people on both sides of the issue use it as a political/economic argument. Weather you blame it on nature or man melting polar ice and a rise in ocean levels is a valid concern.

EVERYONE RUN...we're all gonna DIE...

Well...SOME day anyway...

Some of us, sooner than others.

The trick is...be ready, willing, & able to die at a moments notice...dirt

Cuz that's all the notice a lot of us are gonna get.

Sorry JDM, I dunno how it got jak'd to this point, but I cunna resist...

I think it's pretty naive to think all the carbon waste we put in the environment gets "absorbed" and causes zero damage.

I'm no expert or Al Gore fanatic (since I'm driving a Corvette and VX), but I think trivializing the issue is ignorant -- to say the least.

EVERYONE RUN...we're all gonna DIE...

I think we may be OK
