You oughta read your own postings:
"Your report makes it sound pretty dire. It's a scenario," he said, "It's a regular daily briefing sheet that considered different scenarios much like any first responder would."
This is called "speculation".
I've followed environmental science issues since the 1960's (did my dissertation research on trace environmental analysis). In that time period, I have learned that there is ONE THING that is true about EVERY news story about an "environmental disaster", and that is that in every case, the real facts are so over-hyped as to not be in the realm of possibility. If you discount the news stories by anywhere from 90-99%, you'll come close to the truth.
Thanks for your input.
