You want to believe what you want to believe. The trash on TX beaches comes from ships. BTW S Padre are the best beaches I've seen. Comparable to HA.

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. Most of that is natural tar which seeps through faults under the ocean. Some may be #5 fuel oil which seeps from leaking ships. The crude oil the wells are sucking up are not tar balls but much thinner than that.
