I sell Project Management Software. Alaska is in my territory. I spoke to a worker for one of the major oil companies who happens to work on the North Slope. I thought I was going to sell him some software for a drilling project, but he came back and said that "because the price of gas has gone so high, HQ has put all new drilling projects on hold. They don't want to increase supply right now."

Think about that the next time someone says the high prices are because those dirty environmentatlists won't let us drill for new supplies.
