I live in Okaloosa County Florida and no one here is even considering it. This is a case where the Federal Gov needs to get the hell out the way. For the folks on the Gulf Coast it is now getting personal.

NOPE.
Some very popular people hereon . . . seem to be allergic to some types of data . . . even some facts.
It can be hazardous to offend them.
I hope so.
Sure seems like an outlandish thing to occur . . .
On the other hand, everything about the oil situation and the handling of it is outrageously outlandish from the git go.
Then with OThuga eager to implement martial law for any pretext . . .
God only knows, imho.
Well, at least your meter still works. Mine blew up with this one...
It used to be.
However, the compulsion to
“protect FR’s image”
has meant a LOT of self-censoring as well as some very heavy-handed, almost knee jerk censoring . . . even of well researched data of great import to Conservatives and our Republic.
My wife and I live less than half a mile from the Gulf of Mexico, so you’re talking about us.
How in the name of pete could “nuking” the oil well site spill accomplish anything? Think about it.
Yeah....reminds me that the internet is an amazing thing, but anyone can pop up their whackjob thoughts at the click of a mouse....blurp.
Wifey and I (who did a driving trip of all coasts of Florida a year ago) were just musing about how Daytona and that area will likely have a kickass summer tourist season this year.
Yep - lately I've been more than a little disappointed at the number of 'bandwagon' FReepers who spout their keyboard expertise on this.
Gas prices may still be over 3 bucks, but apparently beer or 10-High bourbon are at all time lows, given the kooky posts floating around here.
Yeah, their name isn’t British Petroleum.
You're more likely to see a forced evacuation of southern Arizona because it has become "too dangrous for citizens."
I really hope it’s not going to be this bad
Not yet. Give it another week. My job won’t go away for a little while after the tourists stop coming down here but job security will definitely be a whole lot weaker.
Ian Punnet, is that you?
It’s George Bush’s fault.
So how is that professional journalism thing working out?
I understand the Main Stream Media, or (MSM) is working out well too.

If I posted what I really wanted to say the Admin Moderator would pull it..
So, do you read the oildrum blog? will you stay and breathe the fumes? Do you have a plan?
I live near DC. I have an emergency relocation plan
I don’t think it is going to work in this case either.
You maybe should read up on the debate of whether to nuke it or not in a last ditch effort to collapse the deposit structure and cut off the oil hole. Russia has done this in such situations of deep well drilling on land that has gone bad with an uncontrolable leak and it worked to stop the flow of oil.
A lot of “experts” are advocating nuking it as a last ditch effort and I think they will try it if all else fails.
