"And even when oil starts coming out of the ground 10 years from now (if drilling were approved tomorrow), that oil will have only a marginal effect on gas prices. Citizens could have a much bigger effect - and much more quickly - simply by driving less and by demanding more fuel-efficient vehicles."The editorial doesn't even bother to mention the whole "dependence on foreign oil" issue. That will come next.
UPDATE 5/3/2006: Gas prices now over $3.00/gal, the Journal Sentinel is crying about the pain and burden on the middle class of high prices! Hypocrisy.
