Lilo,

This spill has taken a back seat to the Gulf. Unfortunate since it's affects can be just as bad and the cause just as disturbing.

Oli,

Didn't know you had tri-citizenship in Texas, Romania and Connecticut. Interesting. Must be a mess during tax time.

Good news in Jersey (my neck-o-the-woods) The state is taking over parts of Atlantic City. Of course it's driven by money. The state sees A.C. as a cash cow. Now it's leaking money all over the place and a lot is going into the pockets of incompetent local government and money-grubbing casino administration.
