Good news. Mississippi River mud apparently the cause.

False alarm.

The petroleum residue is sitting on the deep seabed. Not likely it will be rising up.

Not for nothing, but since when does sediment float?

Sad news for the eco-fanatics. Of course, if this isn’t reported with the same gusto as the original report, it will still work in their favor.

Petroleum consumption means from highways, driveways, car washes and any place else a consumer lets some petroleum product get into a waterway. Drilling is dead last and the '09 leak in the Gulf hasn't changed the percentages.

There is a spring thaw going on, extra water carrying sediments get washed down river...makes sense!

Maybe not, considering all the toxins the river pours into the gulf. I don`t think there are any artificial fertiliser eating bacteria.
