My family went to Galveston sometime after an oil spill. My brother came out of the water after accidentally tanging with an oil patch in the water. It was like someone poured motor oil on him.

If that's the price that has to be paid for cheap energy then I'm willing to pay it.

Some of the most popular surf breaks in SoCal:
1. Huntington Beach.....a few blocks from small pumps 2. San Onofre: literally right next to 2 large nuclear reactors on the sand 3. South Bay: in the shadow if the El Segundo Chevron refinery I dont go to the beach to sit on the sand and look out onto the horizon with my binoculars. If there is a pump 5 miles offshore, what do I care? People will not stop going to the beach because there is an oil rig nearby.

Those are well documented natural seeps and have nothing to do with the rigs offshore. In fact there have been studies that show pretty convincingly that drilling activity actually helps control and lessen such seeps.
