The Dutch Libertarian party has picked up the gauntlet and, for the second time ever, will participate in the next elections. It would be great if we could get some coverage on your site since there are many Liberty lovers that listen to your station and, well, to be honest, many Dutch are tight on donations. We are growing fast and could use some backing to pick up more momentum.
In Liberty,
Hendrik Brouwer

Why does neither the U.S. government nor U.S. energy companies have on hand the cleanup technology available in Europe? Ironically, the superior European technology runs afoul of U.S. environmental rules. The voracious Dutch vessels, for example, continuously suck up vast quantities of oily water, extract most of the oil and then spit overboard vast quantities of nearly oil-free water. Nearly oil-free isn't good enough for the U.S. regulators, who have a standard of 15 parts per million -- if water isn't at least 99.9985% pure, it may not be returned to the Gulf of Mexico.
