"Let Us Not Forget Them"

No amount of criminal prosecution can compensate for the intolerable and painful suffering of our seabirds and the many animals becoming ensnared by oil each day, and in the months and years ahead. That their beauty and innocence are but a memory — as they lay dying, soaked in oil, immobilized and gasping for breath — should be with us all every time we fill our gas tanks and through all the air-conditioned miles we drive, until we become part of the solution. I agree.     TP.
