Tony Tackson has lived along the lake since the late 80s.  &quot;It looked real good, then all of a sudden I could see the dark water coming in, and I knew it would be a problem then.&quot;  That dark water was sediment, or dirt, pouring into the Lake Forest Lake.  &quot;This lake is eaten up with mosquitoes, it&apos;s standing water, it&apos;s bad.&quot;  John Peterson also lives in Lake Forest. He is the President of the Homeowners Association.&#8230;]]></itunes:summary>

But the captain of the port, Captain Lincoln Stroh, emphasizes that it all depends on how quickly a big oil spill can be cleaned up. A collision with a 600&#45;foot tanker early Wednesday broke a barge that had just been loaded with more than 419,000 gallons of heavy, almost tar&#45;like fuel oil. Stroh says investigators don&apos;t yet know whether the crash broke all three tanks on&#8230;]]></itunes:summary>

              <itunes:summary><![CDATA[Day 5 of Putting In In Park is riding in a truck that smells like fried chicken On Day 5 of Putting It In Park, I&apos;m riding in a truck fueled by cooking oil.  Mark Hendry owns a shop in Tillman&apos;s Corner called Southern Automotive. He also owns a vehicle that I have dubbed the &quot;Chicken Truck.&quot;  My month of not buying gas wouldn&apos;t be complete without a ride with Mark.  Photographer Arnell Hamilton and I quickly discovered that it will cost only 42 cents for my seven miles! Yes!  His truck is huge and grabs attention. &quot;This is an 02 Chevy 3500 Series&#8230;]]></itunes:summary>
