Give your concern about the oil spill in the gulf!

[jumpstart]

What effect will this have on us? Will gas prices skyrocket? Will our waters be too polluted to drink or bathe in soon? Will this cause toxic rains on our lands? Give your thoughts!

Gas prices will go up no doubt while these assholes are making billions.

The spill wont affect gas prices. That is a drop in the bucket in terms of global oil supply. It wont affect the water supply except maybe on the coast. It will kill a bunch of fish, a lot of birds and several mexicans but thats about it.

Ok.  I'm concerned that a powerful company is smart enough to develop the technology to create this problem, yet too stupid to envision the possible outcomes of its application.  What label would you apply to a child who ran around with a sharp stick and, after he fell on it, said he didn't see that coming?

[Hulkster]

I can't even watch the news about it anymore because I get pissed off.

BP brings in hundreds of workers to clean the beach that Obama visits, he leaves, they all leave.

where where the hundreds of workers over the last 5 weeks?

fucking disgraceful.

I spent a lot of time when I was growing up on the Gulf Coast of Florida (family had a vacation home near Tampa) and I love the whole Gulf region.

fishing, crabbing, beaching, etc

if this thing goes on for months like they are saying it will now that the top kill operation has failed, the gulf is fucked. and heaven helps the coral reefs of the Florida Keys if it gets over there.


those reefs will take hundreds of years to bounce back..

I love this post.  Honestly, what the hell are they doing.  They better get on their friggin horses.  This is becoming an environmental castastrophe.

Hmm, I used to live and work in southern La. I now live near ATL, Ga.

Don't care? Think screw it , it's crawfish season, hmmmm, consider this reality based on the current facts.

1. The top kill efforts have failed and we will have at least 1 more week of oil pouring in at a rate of 12-19,000 barrells a day.

Right now this has suspeneded the local fishing of all kinds.


2. WITH the obvious move to better regulate drilling which is needed the oil giants move off to UNregulated nations like the Nigerian coast and drill there.

Sadly , BOTH major sources of job and revenue will be hurt greatly for a generation.

Yeah it is crawfish season

wtf? Have you ever heard of the oil futures market? Do you even realize how this stuff works on the global econmic market...seriously?

That was awesome...

That was bikini baker and polluted the water with radioactive compounds still active over 60 yrs later. Yeah real cool.
Why do you think they banned atmpspheric testing in the early 60's/

[Howard]

Very cool video...would suck to be on either boat...even if it wasn't fake.

The test was real and part of a now declassified nuke test called operation Crossroads. This was part of the film from shot baker to test the effect of a deep underater blast called shot Baker in 1946.
A 2nd test called Charlie was cancelled by Pres Truman, due the high level of radioctivity following this test.
