The Senator's point that he makes very well is that foreign governments, such as the Republic of China, drilling off the north coast of Cuba, because of the currents--the currents come up there in the Gulf of Mexico and down around the Florida Keys, what is known as the Straits of Florida, and then northward, as it turns into the gulf stream--the Senator is making the point that illegitimate or unrestrained second-rate drilling that would occur off the north Cuban coast could threaten the delicate environment and ecology of the coral reefs and the Florida coast. Is that one of the points the Senator would make?
