There is another reason for conservation here. Large areas of Arkansas should arbitraily be set aside by decree as payback for what Clinton did in Utah and Arizona in his last days in office. In fact, maybe his haunts in Arkansas could be set aside for the Ivory-bill.

A better plan is to create a compromise. We'll set aside the swamps in Arkansas in exchange for permits to drill in ANWR and repeal of Clinton's executive order parks in Utah and Arizona. I love southern Utah as much as anyone does, but the clean coal that we could mine there would do more for both our economy and our ecology than preventing its mining does for the outdoor recreation value of Utah.

Great point...nothing is free.

If coal is bad, oil is bad, nuclear is bad and wind mills kill the birds in the Nantucket Sound.........ad nauseum
Let them burn wood....oops back to the birds
