I am not sure if this is a venue to highlight a slick map...



There are several authoritative websites that map the extent of the oil
spill in the Gulf of Mexico; one allows you to compare the size of the
slick to where you live.



The Toronto Star has a story about this:

If you want to skip the article, you can go directly to the interactive
map: http://www.ifitwasmyhome.com/



Cheers,
