wow, i followed the link to that booming article and i was a bit blown away. I mean, on some level, it's nothing i didn't know (that the "clean up" is a complete useless publicity stunt.) But to have it pointed out how completely belligerent it is was really eye opening. The solvent "solution" is so amazing to me; i don't even understand how that stuff is allowed to fly.

I remain repeatedly confirmed in my initial impression that this whole thing is only marginally about BP. It seems that BP adhered to industry standards, so the question is how did we get to a place where that level of disregard and shoddy cover ups constitute industry standard? Something is up, and i think it's a lot bigger than i can fully comprehend at this point.

thanks for posting these highly informative pieces of the puzzle.

didn't you post a link to an airplane thing as well, strip search? when you freak out, I freak out too. often. the news freaks me out. I worry about the gulf, the sea, the police state, but just I wanted to look again at that link.

I remember you saying you didn't want to travel by plane.
