It was a legendarily lazy Sunday.

Last night, I saw a rerun of an episode of Larry King Live on CNN, and the guest was Danielle Steel.

More fallout from the boat collision and oil spill...

Early reports indicate that there is no evidence of mechanical abnormality.

We're also finding that there have been several investigations regarding the bar pilot.

Meanwhile, while we're all beating our chests and wailing with sorrow about the dozens of birds that have been affected by a spill of 58,000 gallons of fuel oil, over in the Black Sea, a Russian tanker has been damaged in a storm and lost four thousand TONS of fuel oil.

That's significantly more than what happened in the waters of the San Francisco Bay.

As far as environmental disasters go, our spill ain't a hill of beans.

But there's still a bunch of questions that deserve to be answered.
