The TreeHuggers

Hey, I got an obviously biased e-mail from a Canadian or US treehugger who made some grand claims about the oil that is in the Arctic Wildlife Refuge in Alaska:

1) only enough for 3 months
2) wouldn't be ready for 8-10 years
3) would be shipped overseas

NOW, I don't believe them, because they're so biased and didn't site anything, and these buggers have been known to edit the truth. So, any of this true?

She then gives a site where we can say "DON'T DRILL FOR OIL! IT'LL BOTHER A HANDFUL OF CARIBOU! (maybe)"

So there really is only 3 months reportedly stored up there? I thought with a number like that those guys were BSing.

Smile and lean back....I just e-mailed about 30 people this:





ANWR Has the Largest Estimated Oil Reserves in America

VS

Besides, the entire amount of oil to be found there is 1) only 3 months
>worth of oil for this country


Sean Horton 8) truth comes in handy


Hopefully I can silence 30 anti-Bush liberal karma nuts

:? i guess one source is enough to silence the millions of others to the contrary. i suppose that's the way it always goes..."hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil." you believe what you want to believe, ignore all evidence to the contrary. oh, well.

leans back and gags on the stench of ignorance.

heh, maybe bush ain't crazy, but he sure is stupid:

You can't always be first but you can be next....

The reality is that you never really know how much oil there is somewhere unless you go find it. There seems to be oil pretty much everywhere though, so having huge reserves up there wouldn't suprise me at all.

I wish the world were more honest....so it wouldn't be hard to find truth. An undervauled commodity it seems.

There's one or two of them right on this board. Maybe they want to blame things on society.
