“[It’s] mother nature doing her job,” said Ed Overton, a recently escaped and mentally imbalanced patient from Louisiana State University.

What a bunch of psycho babble. Really means - “Don’t ask me, I don’t have a friggin clue”.

We need the damned OIL!!

You sound almost, dare I say, liberal with your castigation of a Reaganest outlook to the crisis. Where’s the sense of balance? The resistance to the facts on the ground. It’s almost liberal in it’s misplaced hysteria.

This just in, the spill did happen at the perfect time in the temperature loop and yes it did burn off and no it doesn’t sink, dispersed or not. Dispersant simply dispersed the oil and it was evaporated out that much quicker. The oil that came out of that particular find is of the highest quality, light sweet crude, full of methane. It would burn magnificently under a cruel Gulf sun. If what you are seeing wash up is a tar ball, guess what, the worst has passed. Tar is the inert leftovers of a volatile brew of crude. It’s the burnt charcoal briquet in the grill.
