How To Boom An Oil Spill (Video)

Please watch this video I downloaded from YouTube. It lasts just over 8 minutes and it is an education. If you are offended by expletives please note they are not deleted here, rather the contrary, with very good reason. Heaven help us all, who live anywhere this oil spill (or future seabed eruptions) can reach.

Mr Conchscooter;

it would appear that BP is incompetent and hand no containment equipment on hand to handle an emergency, even though they claimed to have

Just watched the prez of Plaquesmines Parish say the same thing about Thad Allen and am now watching live coverage of the "top kill" procedure, an interesting name for an action that may or may not kill more on the top and bottom than already. Nobody can be as mad as James Carville or the Plaquesmines prez but I'm f'ing close. Thanks much for sharing the video -- I hope there's a clean version for sharing that important info. Cindy

Dear CS:

This is about what I expected to be true. I agree with the speaker's conclusions.

Thanks for this.

Fondest regards,

Hmm, politics are not for sissies. The female speaker's voice is familar, however she is correct.
Mind as a foreigner I often wonder
for how long the UnUnited States will survive as a country. Or for that matter the world as it now exists. BP, British Piss.

As i may have mentioned before
"prick mother nature in the ass, and she'll bleed, for ever."

Some doctors I guess used too big a needle in this case;
there is a lot more oil down there than anybody realized.

Now will somebody please ignite the crude so it will burn away into the atmosphere? Errors are made, too often. I'd be feeling for the families of the people who died on the oil rig first. Then there should be some kind of order to cease and desist all drilling in all bodies of water.

This crack in the Earth's crust has exposed a great many shortcomings in these more or less United States.
To stop drilling means to accpet change and Americans live in mortal fear of doing more with less.
