- Support That’s a lot of oil being pumped. Very interesting. Greg L (talk) 05:26, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
- Support Wow... Human safety?! Obviously not a concern at this time... Just imagine of of those going up in flames! Gazhiley (talk) 08:37, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
- Support, very interesting. Happy to overlook the fairly low resolution for historical reasons. Some of the derricks just to the left of the hillock look to be a little slanted, but I may be wrong. J Milburn (talk) 09:39, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
- Support The absurdity of it just makes me laugh, it's hard to imagine a time when we would consider building oil wells in someone's backyard and in such density. — raeky (talk | edits) 02:29, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- Support Very interesting. -- Jack?! 15:00, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- Support. Drill baby drill! I love how when I scroll across the panorama I actually feel like I'm standing at Signal Hill and turning my head from left to right. It's generally a good sign when a picture makes you feel like you're there. Amphy (talk) 06:54, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
