I was being TIC about the sabotage. I would certainly hope that people haven't gotten that crazy about their views. I do think that the timing is interesting though, and I do think that if this spill wreaks the havoc that it seems may be possible, it will have an impact on the drilling debate.
I am curious about how new the platform is. One of the best arguments that I've heard from the proponents of drilling is that most spills and environmental issues occur during shipping and not from the platforms anyway.
For the record, I think it is irresponsible for us to not explore our own resources since we're so dependent on oil. I just think that this may stregnthen the argument against it.
