RE: [californiadisasters] Oil Aboard Sunken WWII Tanker May Pose Threat

We went to the USS Arizona Memorial a couple weeks ago to pay our respects and found that there is still oil leaking from it also (likely bunker oil used as fuel, didn’t ask the docent).  Not much, but noticeable amounts drifted by on the outgoing tide.  7 Dec 1941, 1177 entombed forever.
