Wow! Thanks for the useful information! I propose that these activists shift their energy toward something America can really benefit from, like lobbying Congress to open up ANWR and other sites!
The same people destroyed Seattle during the WTO riots a few years back. They're always looking for the scapegoat of the day and today it happens to be Exxon. They don't care that the very companies they protest provide millions of jobs around the world and help hundreds of millions of people provide for their families. These are mere details to the people who can afford to take 2 weeks off to travel around the country, sing songs and chant silly slogans. Then they go back to their comfy home and move on to the next protest.
Like you said, let's open up ANWR and actually help people.
You won that bet...
