ANWR

Heh (!!) I need to read George Wills more often...like everything he writes. Today he talks about ANWR, and debunks the left...I am agnostic about drilling there...if there's lots of oil, we should drill, if not, we should leave it be, but I'm pretty ambivalent about the whole thing. But George might have convinced me to support the drilling. Here's a quote.

Few opponents of energy development in what they call "pristine" ANWR have visited it. Those who have and who think it is "pristine" must have visited during the 56 days a year when it is without sunlight. They missed the roads, stores, houses, military installations, airstrip and school. They did not miss seeing the trees in area 1002. There are no trees.
