That'll work. Reminds me to ask my wife to make some pierogi

She smothers them in chopped bacon fryings for me.

What difference will it make when the river takes a right hand turn

Well, unlike salad, you've gotta cook greens. Uncooked greens are for cows
and horses, and Japanese Beetles.

As with anything that needs cookin', there's a right way and a wrong way.

The fish I eat could be cooked with only heat, and still taste good

So you might say, "It's good if it's cooked with only heat."

You missed the most obvious benefit. Rigs are hi-rise condos for all
types of marine life! Its all about the fishing!

Yes and no.

The common belief is that rigs and production platforms are fish
factories and that's not the case at all. In fact, there is some
evidence that the platforms may hurt the reproductive cycle because
fish won't leave the vicinity of the structure to reproduce.

That is by no means definitive, but tracking studies suggest that is
the case with certain species - in particular red snapper.

Having said that, certain types of reef fish thrive very nicely near
the structures - species like grouper for example have actually had
something of a resurgence because of the platforms.

The other issue is exactly what kinds of fish are attracted to the
platforms and what depths they can find shelter. For example, in the
North Sea, they have found that creating shelters creates some habitat
for cod fish, but that turns off other types of fish like haddock.
Haddock like to hang along linear objects placed around the platforms,
but that creates problems for cod.

I know in California, they've done a lot of research on this and have
developed some differing techniques depending on the dominant speices
where the rig resides. As it's more economically feasible for the
major oil companies to just leave the rigs in place rather than
disassemble them, they need to show some sort of benefit from doing so
and the exact benefit for leaving them in place has been hard to pin
down.

One interesting factoid is that the deep water rigs seem to attract
pelagic species at a higher rate that originally expected.

It's an interesting subject.

Didn't you mean LHS is better than Franks?

LHS has no flavor and even less heat.

It is the one my mother uses.
