To state for certain that Corexit and or oil cannot be distributed by rain just because of boiling points seems a bit off. If only elements with specific boiling points end up in rain, explain fish or frogs mixed with rain? Is the boiling point of Corexit higher or lower than frog?
No denying the hazards of this mixture in aquifers, but let's' wait till Cloudsinthesky's project is published to say rain water is unaffected.

There are too many ppl on ATS who are willing to pick holes in anythiing and everything.
It may well come through the rain, but I can't prove that, if you can then between us we have a stronger case, so please post how this would occur.

see, its a double edged sword because there won't be any corexit-oil rain across the US, but the stuff will try to dilute itself within the groundwater as much as it can, whiich is real bad news, eventually culminating in very low concentrations of corexit, but spread out literally everywhere

really? i bet the msm news though tried to make it look like the fishermen were the deft ones.
I'm in the UK and only get standard digital, so I only get BBC and Sky news, watch it every single morning in the week and haven't heard anything really about deepwater for at least 2 weeks!
Those who question and challenge are your allies in truth-seeking.

Well, thats what I'm not sure of, though, and havent seen anything convincing either way yet. Does it stay in the water supply for ever, or evaporate wholly or partially?
Will it make it to British shores? Or will it dilute to benign levels? Do we even know either way?
