I honestly heard something about that sometime back. Hoped was a rumor. Look at it this way, if China ever did get it, they wouldn't care about any reindeer or polar beers getting in the way of drilling for oil, so if it ever got to that point, why in the world would we hesitate to drill baby drill in Alaska and take the oil for ourselves?
