Just imagine the damage from a couple tanker of oil broken up in CA or Va? It wouldn't kill very many but could further damage our economy.

Eh, as someone who recreationally fishes a lot, and also is concerned about the environment, it would bother me a great deal, and hurt charter captains, etc., some commerical fishermen if there was a big oil spill in Delaware Bay or something, but it would hardly be a crippling economic blow or even a noticeable economic blow to the economy.

It would make the evirowhackos flip out though. I think AQ, if they have any ability to do anything, have bigger fish to fry than making envirowhackos tear up at oil-soaked seagull.


This sort of thing has, of course, declined over the past few months but it always stuck me as odd how people seemed to almost get EXCITED attempting to scare the crap out of each other with lurid theories of how to mount a terror attack, almost like telling ghost stories around a campfire and trying to one-up each other.

What about the Panama Canal?
