We are about to experience, at minimum, a 30% loss of planetary marine life.

Ridiculous! We have had larger spills without such events. Why do you make this crap up?

Hope the casing below the BOP is in good shape, they are going to be pumping like hell into it.
It is not an operation without the danger of making matters worse.

I just come back from fishing in the Barataria Bay area near the coast on Thursday. Not a sheen to be seen. Plenty of shrimp boats working the area before the oil arrives.

A friend that fished Friday said oil has made it into the area I was in the day before. But it was in small patches of thick tarry, and not the liquid sheen.

Fried some trout tonight, and no taste of oil. Was very good.

Yeah, I must be delusional. Or suicidally depressed. Just ignore me, and assume all the stats you've been fed are valid, and that this Coup will do everything it can to save the capitalist culture of the Gulf.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Agree!
The Mexican spill was many times worse and would still be worse if BP did nothing.

Maybe many don’t know or prefer to not acknowledge that the formations in the Gulf leak crude all the time and have heard at a greater rate than the BP leak. The oceans have the ability to handle crude oil, its only the thongs at the beach that is flippin out.
