I am not advocating that we just drill. I think we do need to invest in alternative/renewable energy sources, but I also think that as long as the need for oil exists, we should try to make sure as much of that need is met by getting it from our own house.
I wish solar, wind, biofuel was a viable option right now. Have they gotten better in recent years, absolutely, but they still have a ways to go. One thing I would like to see is that we open up the offshore stuff for drilling, but any company that drills there needs to spend a certain amount of money developing or investing in alternative/renewable energy. I think that would be a nice tradeoff On Wed, Feb 4, 2009 at 4:38 PM, Gruss Gott <[email protected]> wrote: > > > JJ wrote: > > If the worldwide oil situation every gets _really_ bad, I want to have > that > > supply in out back pocket, to give us a last chance to move to something > > else. > > > > That's my issue with it.
