• Got oil?

    From WAYNE CHIRNSIDE@1:123/140 to LEE LOFASO on Fri Apr 30 05:16:54 2010
    Well you folks there have had quite the run of bad luck.

    Now your local fishing, oyster and shrimping industry will be wiped
    out for decades.

    Katrina was a combination of forces of nature and bad government
    decisions about the levee system but this one is entirely
    man made.

    I was reading where another oil nation in S. America employed
    offshore drilling but they mandate TWO blowout preventers while
    B.P. used but the one for reasons of bottom line profits due to additional costs involved with employing two.

    That was rather short sighted thinking as regards to their fiduciary
    obligation to clean this mess up.
