Pelican-stock 2010: A flock of well-oiled pelicans need cleaning after the Gulf oil spill crisis.Courtesy IBRRCShould you ever find yourself needing to clean a pelican (and more and more of us probably will after the Gulf oil spill) here are step-by-step instructions and the every-day household product that does the trick well. Proctor & Gamble stock will probably climb at the same rate BP stock drops these days.
As great as Dawn is at cleaning up the wild life, I have a nagging question: what is Dawn made of? It's a synthetic detergent, meaning it some form of lipid brewed with an alkali. As far as I know, it's not made from animal or plant oil, which makes me wonder if it's made from petro chemicals to begin with... Again, I have no idea, and i'm not trying to spark a conspiracy theory here. Does anyone know?
I'm not sure what all these things are, but here's an ingredient list:

The story in the link notes that Dawn is made with oil-based chemicals and there are some out there who view this as not a good solution to the problem. But I didn't want to be a spoiler on this discussion in my original post.
They do have petrolium in the formula, but if it works to clean these animals and have them perhaps live, then terriffic! It this product is working and Dawn is offering it for free then they deserve praise I don't care if this massive free publicity for them, I don't care if other Environment Friendly/Biodigradable/"Green" products are being offered but not used as much. They're not being used 'cause they suck! They do, and they cost a lot more to begin with. Thank you Dawn!
