re: That's just nuts

I was talking about a rail car, which typically holds about 25,000 gallons.

The oil wasn't dumped in someone's neighborhood. It was dumped in an area the size of the northern shores of Alaska. In that environment, an amount of oil that would fill one swimming pool has no serious ecological consequence whatsoever, and continuing to insist that it has to doesn't make your case.

The environmental record of the Alaska oil production system over many years has been remarkably good. If you pull Exxon Valdez out of the picture, what else is there?
