Besides, if you're so worried about it, set fire to the spill.

Apparently the correct answer in approximately 42,000 gallons a day.
That's 1000 barrels. Perhaps it could be arranged to have 1000 gallons
of oil spilled into your boat, onto your lawn, or into your living room..

Let's consider how much oil is leaked by 2 cycle
outboards............yes, it really is *a small spill. *Not worth
worrying about since nature spills far more from natural seeps in the
Gulf. *OF course, nature has spilled huge amounts off of Santa
Barbara, CA in building the "Asphalt Mountains" that have just been
discovered ibn the deep water off Santa Barbara.

OMG, 40,000 gallons, that is over 151400000 mL. Why, that could fill
up 1000 of those stupid Cadillac SUVs.
