The above is interesting but I don't know where you want the information to lead us regarding a national energy policy. If you want all new domestic oil production/exploration stopped because of what may be inadequate regulation, I don't agree. Understand that I am not a person who suggests that there be no regulation or consideration for the environment. I think we can develop our oil resources and be good stewards of the environment. I would be the first to agree that an oil company will exploit loop holes and take short-cuts if they can get away with them, that is why I think we need to thoroughly understand the issues from both points of view.
