2. Nor had I. I don't know how big a pump jack is, so don't know if it's huge or small.

9. This is a pump jack ...
It's the thing that pumps oil out of the ground after the drilling to find the oil.

12. There is NO way that all that debris will be searched through for a long time.
As after Katrina, bodies will be found, and bodies will not be found.
