Components of oil and natural gas are used in the following (this is just a partial list). After reading this list you may want to re-think your position.

Because there is oil and gas you have the following:

Ammonia, antifreeze, antihistamines, artificial limbs, bandages, balloons, boats, candy, car batteries, CD's, cellular phones, combs and brushes, computer keyboards and monitors, AUTOMOBILES, dentures and denture adhesives, deodorant (although I know this isn't important to many of the antis),electric tape, paint, eyeglasses,FERTILIZERS (we all eat),food preservatives,heart valves, lipstick, nail polish, hand lotion, bug repellents, mops, motorcycle helmets, oil filters for your car, nylon, panty hose, CLOTHES, the DRUGS that save our lives, ALL PLASTICS (everything is plastic now), refrigerants (there would be no refrigerators or air conditioners), shampoo and soap (I know these don't matter to the anti crowd but they do to most folks), contact lenses, solvents, sunglasses, swimming pools, toilet seats (i'm not certain this is important to the antis either), trash bags, yarn, vitamins,  etc, etc, etc.

This is about one quarter of the products we all use everyday that come from abundant inexpensive oil and natural gas.

For those against shale development I dare them to live a life free of the benefits of inexpensive abundant oil and natural gas.

Might I add AMERICAN oil and natural gas.

Plus, no more of our sons and daughters dying ALONE in a land far away from friends and family.

I will continue the list later.

Hey lets have some fun, can you think of something that I haven't mentioned that comes from oil or natural gas? Then we can ask the anti crowd to also give up those items . Of course they won't; I believe the word for that position is hypocrite.
