A Day Late A Ocean Short...Maybe

By JEFFREY COLLINS and JASON DEAREN, Associated Press Writers Jeffrey Collins And Jason Dearen, Associated Press Writers – 1 hr 2 mins ago NEW ORLEANS – Oil company engineers on Sunday finally succeeded in keeping some of the oil gushing from a blown well out of the Gulf of Mexico, hooking up a mile-long tube to funnel the crude into a tanker ship after more than three weeks of failures. Millions of gallons of crude are already in the water, however, and researchers said the black ooze may have entered a major current that could carry it through the Florida Keys and around to the East Coast.

Is this what some actually feared but this is still a"may have"like it was just 5000 barrels a day this is not good how much oil do you think could get into the Atlantic"if it has"gotten in the current,and given the size of the oil plumes?????just wanna hear some thoughts
