The story describes something that cut the average number of sick days by around 30%. Is 30% significant, in your opinion?

A campaign to stop drilling would need to answer questions about the likely effect, not just about the intention. Since OPEC has cut production many times in the past 50 years, and generally other producers have increased their producti
