Gulf Oil Spill Nearing Loop Current
An anonymous reader writes "Per The Weather Channel's tropical expert Dr. Richard Knabb, 'based on satellite images, model simulations, and on-site research vessel reports, I think it is reasonable to conclude that the oil slick at the surface is very near or partially in the Loop Current. The Loop Current is responsible in the first place for extending that stream of oil off to the southeast in satellite imagery. With its proximity to the northern edge of the Loop Current it may be only a matter of weeks or even days before the ocean surface oil is transported toward the Florida Keys and southeast Florida.'" Other experts are a little more cautious: "We know the oil has not entered the Loop Current," Coast Guard Rear Admiral Mary Landry said at a news conference Monday afternoon. "A leading edge sheen is getting close to it, but it has not entered the Loop Current. The larger volume of oil is several miles from the Loop Current."
If we were ready to go to Iraq and kill like 200K iraqis for the oil there - I think the least we can do is sacrifice the beaches of keywest to tarballs!!
Honestly - being far away - I dont care what happens to Fl or the Gulf. A mess in the gulf of mexico, to me has the same importance as something in the gulf counties. unimportant!
Hey, I'm talking to you...
Listen, pal. You have annoyed me today. I usually walk on the side of the road to work myself even on rainy days, past a bunch of hobos as there is a camp for released sex offenders a few miles away. What I'm going to do is get in my car for the rest of the week and drive to and from work. Anytime I see you posting here, I am going to get in my car and drive to and from work for the rest of the week. Not all that bad of an option SEEING THAT MOST of AMERICA is not a METROPOLIS with SIDEWALKS PAVED with GOLD and RAINBOWS and CANDY CANES.
I hope that you go see a doctor. The syphilis is getting to your head much in the way that it did for several famous persons. You are of no use to American society, and I hope that you do not try to reproduce because I do not want to see what your offspring would look like. You might as well go to your nearest Golden Gate Bridge which can't be all that far away considering that you are a blatant flamer as well and JUMP OFF IT. Please keep in mind that since no one cares about you--not even your mother--they won't even try recovering your body. And I'm serious about walking to work. I'm going to drive my car to and from work starting tomorrow and ending Friday. How does that work for ya?
Just drop the F-bomb whenever you want--classy! Get out of my country, liberal rainbow dweller. Then drown in the Atlantic Ocean trying to swim to the S.R. of Denmark as you're probably already on a no-fly list...
