This was a fact of life on the beaches in the early 1950's. My Mother took turpentine in a bottle to the beach and old rags to clean my feet and legs.
Yep Nature has a way of making a joke out of the best laid plans of government. Remember a fellow called Cabrillo? His ships hulls became so fouled he had to beach them to clean the oil so he could make decent head way.
Good article detailing all aspects of the issue and the nature of the dilemma. That is: Will increased drilling/fracking diminish oil on our beaches for increase it. The article seems to avoid drawing any conclusion here. Curious what the author would recommend
Thanks Robert. Nice wrap up on an old topic for long time beach people. Growing up we had a bottle of cooking oil in the garage for us to clean our feet before coming into the house.
With modern technology in horizontal drilling, it can be done from land underneath the water with no chance for catastrophic failures in the water. Take down the pressure and let the seawater fill in on top.
LMAO!
GREAT COMMENT.

Mr. Eringer, thanks
Thank you for informing your readers that offshore oil production will reduce oil reservoir pressure and reduce natural oil
You learn fast: have a pair of sneakers you want to retread; clean the dogs’ feet with nontoxic oil. Yuck!!
