It truly is criminal. This whole fiasco is amazing to me. What really amazes me is the fact that BP thinks we are that stupid and gullible! They put this BS out and we are supposed to just take it in without question? I think NOT. As long as I breathe, I will stay on this because it is MY HOME they are messing with! My CHILDREN live here too.....and I will fight for THEM till I can't fight anymore.... How DARE they come to MY HOME and create this living HELL, then LIE to us and pack up their toys and go home
It is truly criminal
We all need to vent sometimes. I was so fed up with this whole nightmare, for a moment...just a moment, I thought what the hell am I doing here? Why should I take on this fight when the rest of the world believes it's all said & done? Why am I pouring over documents & info I barely understand?
Others have said, 'why don't they, the residents of the Gulf, just move'? I ask why should anyone have to give up their homes & way of life? I don't live on the Gulf coast, but I have visited. I've swam in those waters, eaten the food it has given me...I've driven thru the area a hundred times. Speaking from the mid west I can still say this is my home. It is my Gulf roo & no one has the right to foul my back yard.
And so, here I am. Trying my best to make sense of that which makes no sense at all. Not only does BP have other wells, many of them are leaking. People have forgotten about the 2 other sites associated with the Deep Horizon found to be damaged all those months ago. I don't trust what they are letting us see.
And people wonder why I'm cynical...edit on 21-10-2010 by kno22 because: figuring out how to add comments to a quote.edit on 21-10-2010 by kno22 because: Apology for dublicate post..trying to figure stuff out.

Kno22, I am very sorry. I saw it briefly but was distracted by the video and went off from there. Unlike molten magma, these mud slurries cannot be that hot and therefore lose their liquidity very fast.
No need to apologize. So much is being posted it's easy enough to miss something. I'm like a dog with a bone, so believe me when I say I'll come back to ask again.
“accidentally unleashed an uncontrollable giant dragon from the deep”.
Is this a quote BP has made? I know I've used it, remembering a story regarding Mt Cheyanne & civil engineers. Native Americans warned the corp of engineer to now awaken the sleeping water dragon that the range looks like. They were, of course, ignored...until the CoE hit a water pocket where it should not have been & couldn't stop the flow. Much to their dismay the CoE had to call upon the same people they ignored. Elders went to the site and gently lulled the dragon back to sleep. Now really, who was the idiots in this story?
What we are dealing with today if very much like the story above.
I've read your reply a couple of times as I try to gather what I can about it. I don't have the back ground you do, so am a tad slower.
One question I had though, is it possible there is a caldera there that is so huge it hasn't been acknowledged as a caldera? Again, I must go back to the Gulf coast line. Am I the only one that thinks it looks like a ridge?
