Don't insult our intelligence, TB

ER — 4/30/2010 6:22:33 PM (archived)

Every aspect of offshore oil drilling is inherently dangerous, working at sea is dangerous, working with oil is dangerous, working with high tech and heavy machinery at the cutting edge is dangerous. Things go wrong. If the USA has a particularly good record in this area, it's only because we haven't been doing too much of it lately.
