Environmentalists say drilling might pollute Assateague Island and Chesapeake Bay

Who cares what some political activists think, and especially what they say. They mentioned Assateague Island because it is a new word; nobody cares about Assateague Island or is concerned to any measurable degree. Pollute Chesapeake Bay? Even better, this might pollute the North Atlantic from Venezuela to Newfoundland and from Florida to the Azores.

Please, enough with the hyperbole about Assateague, and in no way is it a new word.

I am all for finding new sources of energy resources, and would probably not oppose such efforts off Assateague (not enough information yet to make that determination) however, I can and do understand that are going to be concerns from the people who live near Assateague.......and I'm one of them.
