I reference your story in a recent post on my blog: ( http://www.pay4rides.com/2009/02/putting-the-brak... ) I’m glad to see they are taking the necessary time to further research the implications of increased offshore drilling. We need to invest in alternative energy while all of us just consume less. Attacking this problem from both sides will result in dramatic reductions of imports and less need for offshore drilling in the future

There could be no better investment in America than to invest in America becoming energy independent! We need to utilize everything in out power to reduce our dependence on foreign oil including using our own natural resources. Create cheap clean energy, new badly needed green jobs, and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. OPEC will continue to cut production until they achieve their desired 80-100. per barrel. If all gasoline cars, trucks, and SUV's instead had plug-in electric drive trains, the amount of electricity needed to replace gasoline is about equal to the estimated wind energy potential of the state of North Dakota. There is a really good new book out by Jeff Wilson called The Manhattan Project of 2009 Energy Independence Now.
