I’m all for the drilling, but I have a question. They’re drilling 125 miles from the Panhandle which is at the upper part of the Gulf of Mexico. Florida is about 400 miles long. So how many miles is the drilling offshore of the west of Florida? Not that it matters, but I’m curious.

You’ll have to ask “thackney” who is our resident oil expert. :-}

My rough guess is about 200 miles from the panhandle to Fla west coast
