Give your concern about the oil spill in the gulf!

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.

I wonder how much dead fish surfaced after that one

This will effect the environment for years when you kill off the food chain ie crawfish and other species that feed the fish and the fish themselves wtf this has a effect us environmentally and economically for years.

The gulf coast will NEVER be the same , again, really sad

Alaska is still not the same from the Exon spill most people dont realize how serious this is.

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.

one more week of full blown leak, then once they get this channel thing setup to collect some of it, some will be collected, the rest will still leak.

from what I have read, this is now months away from being stopped completely..

How big is the actual hole and what kind of pressure are we talking about? Real fascinating that this is so frickin hard to stop.

[Hulkster]

the pressures of the oil coming out must be tremendous.

consider that the pressure of the oil coming out must be a lot greater than the force of the water pressure bearing down...and its 1 mile deep underwater..

That was bikini baker and polluted the water with radioactive compounds still active over 60 yrs later. Yeah real cool.

That is terrible, I agree. Piece of shit bastards. It was a really cool big splash though, you have to admit.

[Hulkster]

The spill wont affect gas prices. That is a drop in the bucket in terms of global oil supply

don't be so sure.

Nasser El Sonbaty farts in the Middle East somewhere and north american gas prices go up everywhere..

DR. Quest could figure this out no problem and kill some foreigners too. 

Dr Benton Quest was voiced by the same actor who voiced Scuby Doo, Dino, Astro,... every canine
character in Hanna Barbera productions.

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!

complete utter bunch of incompetent morons

consider that the pressure of the oil coming out must be a lot greater than the force of the water pressure bearing down...and its 1 mile deep underwater..

At sea level the atm pressure from the air in our atmopshere (1 atm) is 14.7 pounds per sq inch psi.
For every 33 ft of dept you add another 14.7 lbs of pressure per sq inch.
5000 / 33 = 151.5 x the pressure or 151.5 x 14.7 = 2227 lbs per sq inch , OVER a TON per sq INCH!

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 

yep, i still dont care.....and last time i checked, you crying about it wasnt helping the spill either.......

True enough.

The reality is that NOBODY is going to get much crawfish, shrimp or fish off the La/ Miss/ AL gulfcoast for a LOOOONG time
Pretty damn sad
Lots of oil workers will be paid off as well.

If he goes crawfishing or lives in the gulf region, he may be in DENIAL.
This spill will ruin that entire industry in the entire region for a generation.

the crawfish wont be affected for awhile since they are freshwater.....and farm raised...
