Far be it from me to wonder what BP is doing running an oil field in Alaska.

BP: Pipeline closing may last for months - Yahoo! News:

BP discovered corrosion in the transit lines only after the Department of Transportation ordered their inspection following a 270,000 gallon spill in March at another section of the field.

But, a 270,000 gallon spill? And only then do they think maybe the ought to do some routine maintenance on their lines?

Right. No environmental problem there, Bunky. Settle down. Go watch the war on TV.
