I'm not sure how I feel about the nytimes article saying 36 billion gallons were spilled in the iraqi/kuwait conflict. Seems off by a factor of 1000. That makes this particular spill much more severe than this article makes it seem.

So let me get this straight, you are questioning the Times article because of the info you read on the Wiki?? :rofl:

You need to find better sources my man:af:
