To avoid biasing your opinion--because I know all of you are influenced by what I write--I point you to George Will's take on the ANWR debates without commentary. The upshot:
If geologists were to decide that there were only three thimbles of oil beneath area 1002, there would still be something to be said for going down to get them, just to prove that this nation cannot be forever paralyzed by people wielding environmentalism as a cover for collectivism.
Enjoy.
