Captain Hazelwood by Deborah S Regan Captain Hazelwood sat down in the diner, Lifted his menu and ordered salmon   Captain Hazelwood experienced emotions That Exxon couldn’t tell you about   The oil tankers sail over the ocean’s curve And maroon themselves in straights   The moon recedes further from the earth (It is God’s eye). 10/28/2004 Author's Note: I personally blame Exxon more for the famous oil tanker disaster, but Captain Hazelwood's name evokes the tragedy more aptly.

The ship's captain is directly responsible. How much Exxon may be responsible is more problematic.
