Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Second Line"

From Mike Flugennock, DC's anarchist cartoonist -

"Second Line"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3311

So, after getting the worst of Hurricane Ida, Louisiana is about to 
get the worst of the still-ongoing oil spill from somewhere in the 
thousands of miles of decomissioned and abandoned pipeline — 
previously owned and operated by who the hell knows who — on the 
bottom of the Gulf Of Mexico.

"The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement has allowed the 
offshore oil and gas industry to leave 97 percent of pipelines (18,000 
miles) on the seafloor when no longer in use" since the 1960s, said a 
report issued by the Government Accountability Office earlier this year.
