Lots and lots of facts, figures, charts and maps relating to North American oil, coal and gas imports;

Just a thought: Those maps would be particularly useful to someone who wanted to sabotage energy imports! Given the current supposed terrorist threat, some of that info really shouldn't be in the public domain.

Another link, it shows changes in US domestic production, imports, refinery input, stocks, etc. over the last 2-3 years.

I agree.

I'm sure the US has added extra security to the Alaska Pipeline, but it is not something that can be fully protected, being so long and so remote to population.

A few years ago some yahoo shot a bullet into it and the pipeline had to be shut down for several days.
