It's all ferkin theater PM, my friend.

On my TV I see gumbooted, white overall and rubber gloved clad vounteers labouring under an azure sky on a white sanded bead scouring under the sand for sheep pellet sized hunks of oil now weathered to hard tar.

And what does this all toil produce? A few handfulls of these tarry sheep pellets displayed proudly before the camera carefully contained in a sieve.

And after all this labour on the beech a thorough decontamination for all - lest a molecule of oil escape the beech and make its way into populated areas.

Exactly Andrei.

Asphalt = "hunks of oil now weathered to hard tar"
