Lindsey Williams talks about his first hand knowledge of Alaskan oil reserves larger than any on earth. And he talks about how the oil ... all ยป companies and U.S. government won't send it through the pipeline for U.S. citizens to use.

Full Version: The Energy Non-crisis
The oil under Gull Island, Alaska, appears to be just a pipe dream
"Oil: We're running out or unable to access it," a reader wrote in an e-mail to the Kalamazoo Gazette recently. Then he added, "Google Gull Island."
Another reader has written a few times in the last year about Gull Island. "The biggest pool of oil in North America, possibly the world, was discovered in 1976, on Gull Island, Alaska," he writes in his latest e-mail.
Gull Island oil is supposed to be the answer to America's current crisis with enough crude to meet America's needs for 200 years.
Great, so how come the only person who knows about this is a former Baptist missionary named Lindsey Williams, who ministered to the folks building the Alaskan pipeline in the 1970s -- and the folks who have bought his story and are spreading it all over the Internet?

Even if it wasn't just a pipe dream...Aren't we supposed to be moving AWAY from using fossil fuels?
Tapping into more oil doesn't solve anything, besides our reliance on foreign oil...Other than that it just makes more problems (environmental).

Couldn't tell you mark, just thought it was interesting. This doesn't mean I believe the fuck.
Not the best news for the environment like Trebek said.

True, but their answer to crude oil is ethanol which costs more to produce than regular gas. All the other options are completely underfunded. Imagine if we spent the 3 trillion dollars wasted in Iraq on Solar and Wind technology [or even cancer research]. Problem solved. The oil companies and anyone they give money to will completely ignore such options. The powers that be are rooted too deep in our government to make any real changes. Kind of sad in my opinion.
I say, drill away. Let's drive down our costs by selling it to China at extreme profits. Take said money and invest it into renewables and end our dependence on hostile countries.
