Worried about further damage to America's fragile fossil fuel infrastructure from the rest of the hurricane season? Visions of oil-soaked ducks and homeless polar bears keeping you up at night while Sarah Palin drills her rhetoric into the public?
Take heart! Politicians are working overtime to make sure no more oil tankers will be hastily joined together with cardboard, or staffed by a minimum of one crew member. Way back in the early 1990s, Aussie duo John Clarke and Brian Dawe let us know that everything is copasetic on the high seas.
While the biting satire specifically referred to an unfortunate incident off Western Australia in 1991, the sad truth is that many disastrous oil spills have happened since the infamous Exxon Valdez of 1989. If we increase our drilling and shipping of oil, we've got even more chances for accidents in the future.
Thanks for the link Dad!
