There's a lot that could be done now and in the next couple of years that could have a substantially bigger impact than ANWR oil.

I hear that all the time, but experience teaches me that this is a throw away line with absolutely nothing to back it up.
Like the nut case at work who was planning to run for president and "defeat Bush".

He's on permanent (mental) disability leave now.

Memory fades fast, but I think I mentioned that energy conservation can be considered a patriotic duty and the President could call for us to do our part. (I know I said this in a thread yesterday or today.) If a substantial sector of our populace started replacing incandescent lights with compact fluorescents, insulating homes (even with just thermal film on windows), and forming grocery-pools, we could start saving energy. And those are just a couple of ideas to start with. Changing the fundamental energy structure of the economy will take longer, but it has to begin somewhere.
