As of this morning, our roads are still full of gas hog SUVs and pickup trucks,
most with one person in them. *If you really wish to see something criminal,

the school bus nor walk a few blocks home.
If we are looking for someone to blame for the Gulf disaster, we need to start

P.S.
However, greed DID play a part in this drama too. They had almost zero
experience with working at these depths and yet they cheaped out on
