I really wish that the country would seriously explore alternative energy. Our reliance on oil has put us at the mercy of others and has not served us well. I had a boss who used to say that technology follows the money -- so maybe we need to put serious money towards serious developments of alternatives. Either that, or seriously take over one of the Middle East oil states so we can continue to feed our addiction from a distance.

I'm not a tree hugger, but I really don't want to see our environment destroyed so we don't have to change. The ecosystem is fragile enough, without our inflicting more damage to it. It's clear that they don't yet understand the full impact of this current, sustained oil spill, beyond the obvious impacts to the environment and the people trying to clean it up.

Up until now, I have through the environmentals were over the top about their reistance to off shore drilling, but now? I think I've changed my mind.
