Citizen Journalist and activist Lance “Varg” Vargas will be on a fact finding excursions to Destin, Florida this weekend. He will get to the bottom of the effects on the oil spill on the beaches off 30A. He will attempt to observe the sheen in the water by splashing around in the surf. Attempts to observe the oil underneath the sand will be mad by boring holes into it with an aluminum High Life can. A snorkel and mask will be used to locate underwater plumes. There will be interviews with locals, particularly liquor store clerks and fish mongers. He will personally sample the local gulf fish. Many careful observations will be made around sunset where he has been told the sheen can be seen best. He will be careful to differentiate any potential oil on the water from the sunscreen coming off his wife.
