I can look offshore here and count many, many oil and gas platforms. We've had no great disasters here, and the rigs are actually excellent habitat for fish, corals, etc... As a SCUBA diver, I love 'em! They're also great for "dead reckoning" navigation, they give you a landmark. Anyways, I don't really notice them when I'm at the beach. I want more of 'em!Mayberryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07664966137470121099noreply@blogger.com
