I hear you just fine. The whole country is becoming a nanny state.


Neighbour of mine had an oil leak recently and lost the contents of
their heating oil tank into the ground. The clean up operation has
taken a two weeks so far and is costing them a small fortune not to
mention the fine.

Sigh.

Oil COMES from the ground. The government goes to great lengths to put a
bunch of it BACK in the ground.

But let an individual do so, and it's the end of the world.
