This was original material, and you couldn't answer this: ************************************************************************** JB> on the cameras and let's have a real discussion on drilling. Yes, let's. Esp lets discuss the fact that, of that est 86 billion barrels of oil *believed* to be recoverable from our off shore areas, only about 25% is covered by the congressional moratiorium. Which leads to the question, why hasn't Bush licensed the 75% he has always had the authority to license? Check the Bush administration energy departements report to congress on offshore oil. www.snipurl.com/offshoreoil Or, let's talk about the construction of refineries. Let's discuss the analyst from the American Petroleum institute, who reports the oil companies are expanding existing refineries so much they have added the equilivent of one new refinery every year for the last ten years. snipurl.com/newrefinery And we can wrap is up by looking at the article in the Wall Street Journal, July 21, 2008, which reported there are more rigs drilling in this country today than ever before. Or the commentary in the Toledo Blade last Saturday that reported that the proposed oil drilling will have an effect equal to about 2/10ths of one percent of the world's oil production.
