I sure hopw the people who want to drill for domestic oil have it set in their minds that this is a TEMPORARY move, designed to create a comfortable buffer for a transition to other fuels.

I am deathly afraid that once the drilling starts and gas prices drop (however much), people will become content, and stop investing in alternatives. We Cannot afford to let that happen.
