Of course, we're STILL dealing with cleanup (although it's falling off of the news-radar.) Most recently, oil has been found in the mud at the bottom of the river.Lana Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06975996208260144558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22752109.post-7464460999403651782008-07-30T11:55:00.000-05:002008-07-30T11:55:00.000-05:00I've seen the idiotic attempt to equate democrats ...I've seen the idiotic attempt to equate democrats with higher gas prices.
