Not The Tar Balls

The Coast Guard has examined the tar balls and they aren't from the spill. Hooray. For now. I feel a lot better.

Not to be a wet blanket on your celebration-- but are you sure? This article was updated this morning at 11:25 and they seem to be sticking to what they believe it is... http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/tar-balls-wash-up-at-key-west-beaches-693727.html

Also At SkyTruth (http://blog.skytruth.org/2010/05/bp-gulf-oil-spill-slick-now-entrained.html) they had the aerial view of the gulf with the oil on the surface being swept into the gulf-- a commenter had this link-- http://www.billnelson.senate.gov/audiofiles/051810BPfootage1.wmv
The last part of the video footage is from yesterday and quite clear.

This is like waiting for a hurricane (only worse) because no one really seems to have a definitive idea what is going on. I am certain this oil will come, there just seems to be too much of it and BP is hiding all statistics about the amount of oil coming out.
