Shakes head in disgust. This is what the Nanny State has brought us to. We are more worried about doing something and causing a little bit of damage rather than doing nothing and causing a huge amount of damage.

I heard on the news a little while back, not sure if it was an article or tv news report, but supposedly their are people getting sick at the beaches after swimming in the water, I think it was in Florida. That may be why they wanted to see what's up.... though im not sure.

The whale cleans 99.% PLUS of the oil from the water..according to the EPA the water has to be cleaned to 99.85%..IIRC the difference is less than .15% which menas the whale has to Store all the water it processes, transport it to shore, offload for further treatment, then go back out, adding about 5000% to the time it takes to process the water.

So, we do nothing and 100% off the stuff stays in the water. Ship cleans it so only 1% stays in the water. So this is a bad thing?

 

We need to get rid of these tools who hold appointed positions that they are obviously not qualified for.

Yup ranks right up there with suspending Skimming operations completely with Hurricane season approaching to do frigging CG safety Inspections.

we need a house cleaning...

They must be waiting for their payoff, its the American way !

Well here is a strange one for y'all to ponder. As you know I am on the front lines in this fight, so I am pretty experienced when it comes to the oil biz. Right now we are about 12 miles from the horizon incident and have had some $hitty weather the past couple of days. Get your tin foil hats on for this! It is raining oil!!!!!!!!!! All of the rain falling on the decks has an oily sheen to it and it is slimy and slippery. If it gets you wet you get slimy. I am not q weather guru but I think it is rather strange and noteworthy. If I was allowed to get a camera on deck I would get a pic or 2. Maybe I will sneek one out tomorrow.

No pictures huh? by who's order?

 

Oily rain doesn't surprise me one bit.

We are in a very high gas environment right now and a camera is considered an ignition source.

That strangely mirrors my daily existence, at least according to my wife.

Hey davey, was it you that cut one ?
