What a mess. I really feel for you guys down on the Gulf coast. Let's pray that BP and the government get that thing capped and the oil cleaned up.

What a mess. The media in Florida is saying the rig is just off the Florida coast. I guess it is in the most literal sense. So is Africa.
It is the ammunition the anti-drillers have been waiting for. I don't understand. They were drilling with no casing and the well came in on them??? Is that what happenned? I hope they get it solved soon. |

They are reporting locally they have"slowed it significantly" this morning.
It could impact our way of life for years if its not stopped. Already smelling the funk off of it in south Mobile County. ![]() Going to go eat some seafood tonight..may be the last time for awhile.

What has me really pissed is this, all over Europe, the North Sea and elsewhere the Oil Co's have mandatory systems which shut the well off at the head in case of a rupture, or another disaster.
Not here, at least on the rigs a few years old, they do not have that requirement. How freakin stupid can we be? And, how about the two Legger in the Whitehouse, ten days before making any moves to take care of this, they still have not mobilized the EPA emergency research and reaction vessel with all the scientists on it to handle an emergency like this. It is sitting in Florida as we speak monitoring dredge materials. That is from the man who used to manage it from the EPA and when he called the head Czar there to find out why it is still sitting there with no orders he was blown off by her. We are run by crooks and thieves, who want to promote their agenda and that is it. Can you imagine what would be done in the lame stream media had Bush been in office. Those poor people down there, failed again by the government, state, local and federal
