In the 60's we were worried about Sputnik so ergo we found all kinds of money. Now it's about profit and there is plenty to be made when the price of oil exceeds the cost of refining naturel gas reserves in the national parks. Then Haliburton and Dick Cheney's gang will be whipped into action raping the public land for personal profit and citing national emergency as the reason. There's no money in conservation. And I will still drive my V-8; if you want to play you have to pay!
