Alaska?

The last time that I got gas it was $3.09. I have never seen it that high. I was talking to a friend and they told me about the situation in Alaska. They said that oil companies only want 4 acres of reserved land to drill for oil and that the reserve is hundreds of acres. I don't understand why we don't drill in Alaska. It seems that when I hear about Alaska, I am told that we can't drill because it is reserved land but they seem to forget to tell us that it is only a very small amount. Also I just visited a friend in Pittsburgh. The family owns over 300 acres and has six oil wells on the property. I'm sure that there are others like this. I don't see why we don't use that oil. If there is more supply with the same demand then the proces can finally go down.
