That is horrible. The layer of oil beneath the sand is pretty typical of spills. Even after the oil on top is cleaned up, the oil remains on the beaches under a layer sand.
Yep. If you were to dig at the site of the Exxon Valdez spill you could still find oil pooling about 6 inches underneath the sand.

I have a conscience and could not turn my back on something that could be fatal if not fixed, because if something di happen I could not live with myself if some one died because of my greed. I put people over money
This is another regulatory oversight (not to bring anymore politics into this, but unfortunately I see the two as an intertwined problem)
The Horizon oil rig was registered as a ship from Saint Martin. Inspections for US registered vessels require 4-8 WEEKS on average, while inspections for the exact same vessel registered by a foreign nation, takes 4-8 HOURS. No one in their right mind would think 4-8 hours would allow for a proper inspection of an OIL RIG.
I believe they are linked as well, but we go off on just that part of it. We need to make sure these links and the real stories get out to others since the media will not do it. They need to see that what the news show them is not the truth. We all got to let the people know that there are major health issues already happening to the residents down there not just the clean up people but ones who live miles from the coast too. Even if they get this oil capped these health issues will still be there and BP says the air is clean even tho they now have a haze that smells bad hanging in the area, just coincidence that it started after the explosion right.

Something of that size and nature undoubtedly released some toxic chemicals into the air and water.

Common sense would say that but we are dealing with a company that truly thinks of people as sheep(and lets be honest most are) and will just say they must be right, why would they lie to us(lol) I don`t know maybe because they would have to pay for those issues as well, and people might actually start watching the real deal about these companies and the way they do biz.

I know what a burning tire smells like, I know what a lot of burning things smell like(some I wish I did not know). I feel for you man, I wish I had the power to turn back the clock on somethings and keep them from happening. I send you good vibes and wishes which I know probably does not help your situation, but I keep you and yours in my thought and hope someone comes up with a miracle fix

I saw that on the news. I am impressed that they are ahead of what they were saying. Maybe now the real clean up can start. My heart goes out to all of the families hit by this disaster. I hate to say this but good job for now BP, lets see you get the mess cleaned up and make sure to take the precautions to keep this from happening again, like drilling the relief wells first like Canada makes the oil companies do.

Yeah, they're stock went up already. I'm happy about them stopping it. Let's just hope it stays that way.

I'm curious as to whether or not they got all three or just the main, most significant one.

Yup, exactly the reason I trusted them to fix their uh-oh.
It is the best choice financially to cover their ass.
Same way I think they will get cleaning efforts to increase once the leak is done, it isn't like this is bum-fuck-nowhere alaska. lol
And they are going to reimburse people for sure.
I'm glad I wasn't wrong, I hate being wrong.
Now we just have to put the gulf coast on spin cycle!

I didn't read all of the pages , but anyways ......The oil is in Lake Pontchartrain now. Sposedly they could have stopped it long ago , but didn't want to lose the goldmine of oil they discovered. Fuck BP.

Its far from oil folks. Even if the oil was stopped for good today. The gulf coast is going to be a shell of its former self. Mark my words. Also if you do some digging some officials believe that the well we all know of is just a small part of the spill. There is another leak that is causing all the damage.

The gulf coast will eventually recover.
To say otherwise is to not understand how long we have to fix it.
Also, another leak? Gimme a link of someone saying this, I'm not saying it doesn't exist.
I just haven't heard about it at all.
