That work for you? Numbers are up on Polar bears. Up a lot actually. This is all more feel bad about your lifestyle nonsense. You like paying $4 or even $5 for a gallon of gas? It is coming, and coming soon. Just remember to blame those evil gas companies, it is there fault we don't let them drill or refine more. Wow, 2 posts and already so much hostility. Pace yourself, it's a long race.
