When they talk about oil spills and say, “The Manatee!! What a hugh ecological apocalypse!!”

I ask, “Do you know how many full to the gills OIL TANKERS were torpedoed on a DAILY basis in WWII? How did the earth ever survive THAT??”.

Yes, and quite a few off Florida. My father was down there at the time (1940/41) and he said he would go down to the beach and watch the tankers burn.
