Where's The Oil ?
I've always wondered what with the oil crunch what is happening to the oil being taken in Alaska and other U.S. oil fields?
We always say we are dependent on that Arab oil, where does our domestic oil go?
Some time back I heard that oil from the Alaska Oil fields gets sold to Asian countries.
Must be nice to have American Oil sold elsewhere and we pay for mid-east oil instead.

Eben,
We have thos tar balls on the south shore of LI as well, they come from ships not the oil rigs. Looks at what's happeneing with the cape wind farm proposal and the similar Long Isalnd proposal, the NIMBYs are winning. I would love more solar and wind power, but what does that have to do with just finding out how much oil we have in the ground?

Unfortunately any "extra" oil drilled here in the US will not have any effect on the price of a 42 gallon barrel. Allot of new oil well are being dug as we speak in the US. Allot of wells that were closed are being reopened in the US, Why? Not to reduce the price with US oil but because whoever owns the well can make allot more money at $65 a barrel than $30, cha ching........

NIMBY = Not In My Back Yard
I would love to see the look on the folks against the windmills when the first stationary drilling rig goes in for "exploratory purposes"
They need a proctologist to do some exploratory drilling in their head!!
