Ya, we're still getting them everyday even with the BP problem.
I'm in Panama City Fl. we did see any oil here, one day they did say
they got about 10lbs of tar balls off the beach,

Actually no, that was a home project just to delight me and my
physicist buddy. I gave it to a local museum and when I checked
back they had done a clean out and tossed it.
Kinda ticked me off, I did a nice job on it.
A while back I repaired my son's science teachers Van de graaff
generator, I got to play with it a while before I returned it :-)

I mis-spent my youth also. I say that because early on in school I tested
in the top 2% in science. I didn't have any kind of mentor to guide me
along until I was in my late 40's and then I didn't have any math to
make it really useful.
Spent most of my years as a tech in assembly and repair on video
equipment, geophysical test equipment, automobile test equipment,
worked in an electric motor repair shop till I got layed of during
the Carter recession. I worked with the physicist building high power,
high frequency ultrasonic equipment, for use in mostly aqueous solutions.
Right now I have work on me and my son's electric gocart, and I'm about
60% finished with two solar collectors simular to this;

Got a 4 ft tesla coil that I never finished, damn!
But enough about me....
