The other inconvenient fact for your doomsday scenario is that both types of Corexit are NOT STABLE once put into aqueous solution. They decompose with a half-life of around 10-20 days. So much of the Corexit put in the Gulf is simply GONE.

Well damn...how are we going to keep the Gulf toxic with that half-life?

"Well damn...how are we going to keep the Gulf toxic with that half-life?"

It's gonna be tough, I agree. No more oil spilling. Spilled oil rapidly disappearing. No Corexit detected anywhere. Nobody dead yet from hydrogen sulfide poisoning. The possibilities for scary doomsday scenarios are shrinking fast.
