I voted for Hickenlooper in part because he is a geologist. It seemed time to have someone with a technical background in the office. I am happy with my vote.

Do those who favor local control in Longmont also favor local control by Alaskans of the north slope?

I am saying that the opinions expressed by the people who own the company that employs the people who make my chicken sandwich have never directly impacted me in the purchase of a chicken sandwich. I did ask what your direct experiences have been with Chick fil A in this regard which you avoided answering entirely. That is interesting!

Has Chick fil a ever made it a condition of your purchase that you agree with the owner? You should record it if it ever actually happens to you. Personally, I have never been asked such a question at Chick fil a. Instead, they usually ask if I want waffle fries with my chicken sandwich.

Looking at the biographies of the Colorado Oil and Gas Commissioners (the make up of which is proscribed by statute as to background and party distribution) they seem to me to be well qualified for their jobs. Those biographical descriptions and the statutory requirements for the make up of the Commission are found through the "General" tab on the link below.

Another reason drilling is not happening in Boulder is that the formations fold upward as you get closer to the Flatirons (the Fountain Formation). The Niobrara formation of such interest in Weld County and eastern Boulder county actually outcrops just above NCAR. Page 11 of the link give some perspective.

It is true that gas produced here is physically used here. However, to the extent gas production in the area exceeds local demand there is ample capacity to move gas to the rest of the US. The completion of the Rockies Express pipeline (1.8 Bcf/d capacity) and the Ruby Pipeline (1.5 Bcf/d) have brought total CO/UT/WY natural gas export capacity to the rest of the country to over 10 Bcf/d versus roughly 1.8 Bcf/d in 1980. There is roughly 5.5 Bcf/d of export capacity out of the Cheyenne Hub located on Hwy 85 near the CO/WY border. The consequence has been a dramatic narrowing of the price difference between the Rockies and the rest of the country.

The link herein leads to a list of current North American LNG terminals. Note that the only terminals that can export LNG can only do so by re-exporting LNG that was previously received into the terminal. None of these terminals have facilities in place to take natural gas from a US source and liquify it for export. Hence, exports are limited to the re-export of a foreign source that has already arrived as liquid.
