Letter: We have plenty of natural gas

I don’t understand all the hoorah about the natural gas shortage. We have plenty of natural gas on the North Slope. My proposal would be to build a gas pipeline alongside the existing oil pipeline. Bring the gas line down to Fairbanks. From there, follow the Alaska Railroad down to Anchorage. The groundwork has been done. The haul road and railroad are already there to bring the needed material to build the pipeline.
