While it's not the perfect answer, this does sounds like some of the best ones available right now. If there was a perfect answer that would allow us to even use the oil as if it had been normally extracted, we'd be throwing it in the air instead of the water anyway.

Compared to the generation we're honoring today, my statement stands. And self-loathing white guilt? Ok....you don't have to explain yourself, but whatever.
