Surprised no-one has commented on this yet. A 51-49 vote made it official that the U.S. government intends to exploit the natural resources of ANWR. I wouldn't be surprised if the threat of the U.S. becoming less dependant on foreign oil gets OPEC to reduce oil prices. Being both an environmentally conscious outdoor enthusiast, and an exploration geologist, I have mixed feelings about it, but overall, I'm glad this is happening. To learn more follow this link:

We have so many important things that we make out of petroleum, plastics, surgical tools and implements, etc., etc. I hope we will someday stop wasting the stuff in our inefficient cars.

Instead why don't we stop wasting our oil on this stuff, which can be made from other materials and use our oil to run our cars.
