“Unfortunately, [the photos] don’t give what we saw justice,” said Chris Kauffman, referencing the photos he snapped while flying over the Florida Keys on May 22.

“We saw a lot of oil in the water,” he said.

The oil streamers stretched north to south for at least 10 miles “North-northwest of Marathon,” on the Gulf side.

“The water appeared to be heading easterly but I can’t confirm that. Plus, the shape of the deposits seemed to indicate that,”...

Ah, that one really made me laugh, which is an achievement I think, because I have no sense humor about this whatsoever. But it is a fabulous metaphor indeed :)

Boy oh boy, we are so in for it. In the end, I wonder which catastrophe is going to do the greater damage, the oil spill or President Tar ball. If one was to think about each disaster individually and imagine either one being carried out to its fullest and most damaging extent, either one could *possibly* be an era ender. Now, let’s imagine them both occuring at the same time, and both of them being carried out to their fullest and most damaging extent...

God Help us.

As much as I want this away from gulf coast beaches, I don’t want to wish it on anyone else. I have heard, although I have no source at this time, that slicks have been spotted by satelite near north carolina and going arund cuba. And from the volcano there is only more, and more, and more...God, when will this end?

Still can’t understand why they don’t do as the Saudies did, use suction hoses and put the stuff in barges.

am I just naive here or is the fact that it is in “streams” kinda better than if it were spread all over?? Does that make sense....
