Onshore and offshore were different. Most of the spills were onshore, despite there being thousands of platforms and hundreds of working rigs in the GOM. So 7 million barrels offshore isn't significant? And "239,000 oil spills across the gulf between 1973 and 2001" isn't significant? I really started to buy into their BS until I did a google. There were at least 3 major spills in the Gulf just last year. Why are they always so ready to sell their souls for a few bucks? Leatherman has seen what offshore drilling can do to a beach. Texas beaches, for instance, "tend to be the trash can of the gulf." Waste from the western gulf's wells - everything from empty oil drums to tar balls - washes up there. Isn't this what CJ has been posting here? I suspect some of that garbage is based solely on the sh*tty attitude of oil men.
