Been off the boards for two days. Looks like they are not going to find any oil. People seemed to keep forgetting that the oil is going to biodegrade regardless of how thick it's column may be or how dispersed in volume conversely. What is still in the gulf will be no more perhaps in less then two or three months.
Meanwhile the GOM sea floor shall continue what it has done for a long time... slowly leak methane and oil.

Meanwhile the GOM sea floor shall continue what it has done for a long time... slowly leak methane and oil. The ROV's that are supposed to be monitoring the sea floor basically park on the same exact spot or rise and move a few feet. Some have been in the same spot for a couple of days. If we do see a new oil seep appear, will probably shock the heck out of them. They should be doing systematic grid searches within a mile to 1 1/2 mile radius from the well. They did wide searches a few weeks ago and found some real interesting stuff.
