Leave the oil and gas in the ground. A lot of good it will do the people of East Timor in the ground. Is it some religious belief that causes you to think an oil company should go risk its wealth to explore for oil without trying to make the maximum profit? Feel free to start an oil drilling operation that doesn't seek profit, if you like. There's no grounds for expecting the shareholders of existing profit-seeking coporations to do the same. We don't all have your religious fervor for charity work. AW ___________________________________________________________ Check out http://clik.to/sf for other lists to join.
