I think I just peed my pants a little. I needed a good laugh! I swear FR needs a “like” button like FB sometimes. Classic!

Al Gore is very disapointed, as the vents must be man made.

Yes, we have an ocean floor covered with methane hydrates in the Pacific and Atlantic that can satisfy our energy needs for centuries to come. Don’t bitch about it. You LNG engineers, start doing your homework, dammit.

“roughly doubling the number of known U.S. seep”

Scientists off 100% but they do know what is best for us.

If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.

We can make a fortune selling carbon credits to the Neptunians.

The ecosystem of the third rock from the sun has all kinds of stuff going on, on it. We little mammals with big brains need to stop these things.

Let’s put little methane mines down there, when a tank fills up it just floats up to the surface. And every ship have methane tank fittings to power their engines! So you just get free methane whenever you find it! Yo!

OH NO!!! they must be stopped!

The number of methane and oil seeps in the Gulf of Mexico is probably innumerable.

They are all over the world in the oceans almost everywhere. The west coast is one huge subduction zone and all the stuff that goes beneath the plate is decomposed. Gasses are a product of that decomposition.
