SAY NO TO DRILLING OFF FLORIDA'S COAST

[Z06 Rocket]

Perfect example of why I will never vote for drilling off Florida's coast. Drill in the Anwar region of Alaska where no one lives. Anwar is land, is much smaller, and can be contained within hundreds of yards if a spill occurrs (not miles and miles of contamination like this episode)......

Look at the sattelite photos half way through the story. There are numerous wildlife refuges that are going to be ruined by this mess.

You think the economy in FL is bad now, wait until the tourists stop coming because they think the FL beaches are ruined. Or worse.... THEY ARE RUINED!
