I had read an article about new exploration in the Gulf of Mexico using new
technology, which they said shows a HUGE oil reserve almost twice the amount
of oil as has been used up till today. That would be a turn around from the
cheap oil economic times we have lived in.

Its interesting that its OK for corporations to move offshore for tax
reasons, but not charitable organizations.  Its also interesting that an
environmental organization that relies on property rights and private
ownership to accomplish its goals is somehow suspect.  I personally find
that much more appealing than the Sierra Club's nihilist lobbying tactics.

I've seen no documents. All I've seen are your assertions that these
documents exist.
