You know, I can’t remember having any explosions of Gulf oil platforms until this year. Ever.
Do I need a tinfoil hat?

Scuba diving sabotaging terrorism? Could be.
In California we think lots of the fires are set as an act of terror.

You could get a more than mile long sheen from just the fuel in a grenerator depending on sea and wind conditions.

And the muncing microbes are all smiles.
Geez, these people are working real hard to make this a major catastrophy. Six hours from the event and still no video?

If you do, can you get one for me too? This just seems too weird for coincidence.

Dumb question: why are the oil rigs exploding in the south? We have a lot of them here in CA offshore and none of them have gone boom.

I, too, may need a tinfoil hat.....very curious how these “accidents” now seem to be happening more frequently.
Wow, fortunately, Mr. Obama has a ban on offshore drilling...(sarc/on).
To: A CA Guy
Well, I don’t think it’s eco-terrorists. Those guys are publicity whores, so they would be sure that everybody knew who was responsible.
This looks to me like it might be a government effort to justify closing down all Gulf drilling indefinitely.

Because Obama’s agency are not getting Pittsburgh Steelers tickets to look the other way during inspection in Ca?

Yeah, they are going to run this, and what happen in the spring 24/7 labor day weekend and milk it for all it's worth.

I've heavily invested in Aluminum foil for personal hat creation since Nov 08 with this Administration. I'm very willing to share.
