Just like the US Navy "didn't care" to clear up the 6000 tonnes of toxic waste they dumped at the bottom of the loch outside my house during their 30-year tenure. Pretty poor behaviour after we graciously allowed them to use it, turning our obscure backwater into the most heavily-targeted nuclear bullseye in the world. They even managed to squirm out of footing the £5,000,000UKP bill for the MoD contractors who eventually did clear up their garbage.
Oh well, you still owe us for all that tea you allowed to be dumped into Boston harbor. Don't think we've forgotten that...
