There's a small oil spill in Massachusetts' Buzzards Bay right now. 325 barrels of oil have leaked, which is over 13,000 gallons of oil, certainly a lot but not enough to go head to head with th grand daddy's of oil spills. You usually need a drunk captain for that, and a company who is willing to let your tax dollars pay for the cleanup. Still, I fact the fact that this isn't going to be considered a "big" oil spill troubling simply becase there have been spills that were worse.
