the Canadians also have a way of separating oil electrostatically now that allows you to take out oil from "dry" wells, and return soil to the ground that you can plant in. The oil is almost as pure as that pumped out of the ground by standard means. They have prototypes running, but have met a lot of resistance from American oil companies. As soon as our environmental laws catch up, they hope to license the technique to smaller oil producers in this country. They estimate enough oil left in already drilled and abandoned wells to last long into the future.

It is time, in fact well past time, to squelch the criminal enterprise democrats and make this nation oil self-sufficient. Combine that with focus of our science on becoming energy self-sufficient as the oil reserves decline and we will have removed one of the biggest obstacles to thumbing our nose at self absorbed oil sheiks and their lies and secret terrorist support. I would like to ask fools like Leahy and Daschle what damn good environmental relativism will be when this nation ceases to function as a global power because of being dictated to by the Middle Eastern oil bullies and OPEC socialism? They wouldn't answer of course.
