My opinion that we should seek alternatives is no different than someone's opinion to drill in ANWR immediately or run their A/C @ 75. They're opinions, hopefully informed ones. Neither one is telling the other person how they should live. You can be sure that if I were rich, I wouldn't be worried about the price of gas or my heating bill or the gas mileage of my car. But I'm not. My opinions are formed b/c these issues affect me greatly.

If I'm coming off as liberal, I'll apologize, I guess. Last I knew, differing opinions led to better decisions via discussion and debate. Didn't mean to offend.
