Toby,
The Monongahela River used to burn from time to time before the white
people arrived in North America. The original inhabitants used to
skim the oil and rub it on arthritic limbs.
The river is now cleaner than it was in 1976, in 1776, or in 1276 --
because we made even more valuable ways of cleaning up nature's oil
spill. Think Quaker State.
