Im surprised this topic has not been brought up here.. However, it is a very sad, sad sight here on the coast. My wife and some other family members are at the benifit concery in Gulf Shores this evening. I sure hope BP gets the oil well capped off soon so that we can start the recovery. :angry:

Will be decades before the gulf is able to heal itself. Such a tragic event.

Wait, this is STILL going on? Hasn't it been three or four months already? How long does it really take to top off the oil spill?

Yes, it is still gushing barrels of oil per minute into the gulf.... The wild life has taken a very hard hit from this.

well burch think about it it´s 1500 meter below the surface these things take time especialy since the lazy buggers didnt have any fix for something like this figured out before hand as they should have...

It makes a nice change for the oil to be invading America for once :p

But seriously hope they get this sorted out soon.

Holla! I was there too. Anyways, Oil spill is systematically raping my state. I live on the coastline in Louisiana and the morale around here is pretty low. Especially wtih all the fishing restrictions going on
