This is retarded. It can only be considered by the numerically illiterate. The volume of oil in the gulf leak is about 1 quadrillionth the volume of water in the gulf. If one were to try to descibe the volume in terms of earthen land mass it would be an order of magnatude less significant.
Yeah. It's like the ratio of the volume of the human body to a single particle of Ebola virus. Insignificant.
Geez.
