BY WILFRED D. WIEHN
once beautiful Santa Barbara California
beaches, now blackened with smelly,
sticky oil sludge, dead birds and sea life.
This is the result of only 22,000 gallons
reaching the shore of the more than
100,000 gallons now in the ocean from a
pipeline leak.
Think not only of the people who live
and work there. Think also of those who
flew there for a weeks vacation, to enjoy,
sunbathing, swimming, surfing, fishing,
dining at the fine beachfront restaurants,
and breathing the the fresh crisp, salt air.
They probably wonder if there is such a
thing as oil spill vacation insurance. Will
they ever go back? And think of the lost
revenue the business owners will suffer.
If you believe it cannot happen here
then you dont believe tankers go aground
and break up, onshore and offshore
pipelines rupture, oil platforms catch fire,
drilling accidents happen and you will
never need to worry about you property
values plummeting from the site and
smell of a nearby oil refinery. There is no
absolute guarantee it will not happen here,
and if there were, scientists may be able to
predict an earthquake but they can not
