Deep Sea Horizon (BP Oil Spill)

So that was the first oil spill in the gulf?

Yep.

Not a single drop had ever touched that pristine bucket of water.

Mind filling me in on where you are trying to go with this?
 
I tinkled in the gulf one time, I think it was right off the beach at Port Aransas? I wonder if anyone saw that from an airliner?

The other times this has happened ..... did it ruin the ocean for years and years?

Did people die or get sick from eating contaminated fish or drinking contaminated sea water?

Just wondering.

I honestly don't have a clue but if you are trying to say that the spill is no big deal, I think you're pretty mistaken.
 
This thread is now about the Jersey Shore.

They've skimmed over 29 million gallons of oil, have 6000 vessels going out every single day to clean up at sea and on shore, are using 24 hour a day clean up crews....

And it's disappearing on its own?

Nah, the last three tropical storms wouldn't have anything to do with the oil getting rolled back into the water column either. :banghead:

Quoted for truth.

I live right on the Louisiana coast and I can assure you that the bigger disaster here isn't the oil, it's the drilling moratorium. Lots more people are out of work now because of that. It was an accident. That is how we all feel.

The other guy said a few drops of oil will contaminate millions of gallons of water ...... I was wondering how the Gulf survived all the other spills.

But people do not want to hear that.

Hey Einstein.
There was a 9 month oil spill off the coast of Mexico in 1980.
Last time I checked,Cancun is still there.
Look it up if facts are things you deal with and respect.

Pour oil on them ...... it only takes a few drops to kill them.

Thread change fail.
 
There's a big difference between "no big deal" and

"the worst environmental disaster America has ever faced,"

Unfortunately between the political posturing, the ratings driven mainstream media reporting and knee jerking of the environmental warriors the real truth is harder to come by.

It's more then no big deal but I'm not betting on the worst environmental disaster America has ever faced either.

Exactly what this is all about.
Look at the ugliness and ridicule spewed out to me by just telling what I saw,and truth be told,it was exaggerated by the media.Those cowards wont dare come by because they know I'm right.
