The ‘dangers’ of offshore drilling
Re April 20 letter in The Sun News, “Offshore drilling isn’t worth the cost to South Carolina coast.”
Oh great, another letter regarding the evils of offshore drilling. I can just imagine these letter writers sitting around a table at Starbucks deciding who will write the next one.
They have to be retired because who else has the time to come up with all these stats? Why, they even know that future oil rig workers will not spend any money in Myrtle Beach.
Now let's go back several hundred thousand years. This same group of people is sitting in a cave deciding who will be writing on the cave walls about the dangers of fire.
It could be dangerous rubbing those sticks together.
