Computer users will be able to participate in an interactive debate over opening Florida waters to offshore drilling for oil and natural gas.

They can submit questions by e-mail to a panel of proponents and opponents that will respond during a live Webcast at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

The discussion is being sponsored by Florida State University and the Gannett media company.

The e-mail address for questions is FlaForum(at)Tallahassee.com. Viewers can watch and participate on the Internet at http://www.Tallahassee.com., the Web site of Gannett’s Tallahassee Democrat newspaper.

Florida State’s WFSU-TV also will televise the discussion on a Tallahassee cable channel and make feeds available to other TV stations.
