I have decided to voluntarily send an additional 10% of my income to the Government to support additional drilling for natural gas.

We keep the house cool in winters, warm in summers - however I am worried that my fellow Americans' multitude of commercial and residential spaces - shall not be sufficiently HOT in Winter and COLD in Summer.

I encourage all right thinking Americans and Canadians to do the same.

May the force be with you.
