IEEE Looks At Kevin Costner's Oil Cleanup Machines

Posted by timothy on from the bright-guy-just-picks-bad-scripts dept.

richardkelleher writes "IEEE Spectrum takes a look at the machines developed by a company funded by Kevin Costner that are supposed to extract the oil from the Gulf waters. Is it possible that in the years since the Exxon Valdez, that Kevin Costner is the only one who has invested money into the technology of oil spill cleanup?"

    So, Kevin Costner has some Oil-separating
    technology to be used on the Oil Spill? What
    about the centrifugal equipment available long
    before this ever occured and was offered to the
    United States since DAY 1 known as Smart-Pipe
    technology (WWW.SMART-PIPE.COM)?

    This has all been dragged along for so long,
    it's evident to only shield from more important
    news such as the bankruptcy of the United States
    into receivership in the China Bank of
    Reconstruction. Must be great that the United
    States gets all it's news, entertainment, and
    tools from the same JEWS that killed
    public-broadcasting of television. We can't
    have anything free in the United States.

    I hear Lindsay Lohan is back in jail again! Mel
    Gibson and that potty mouth? Oh my! I hear
    Brittney Spears is giving free tutoring lessons
    on Nuclear Physics and Differential Calculus,
    anyone have a link on that?

    Just don't show any national news! The kikes
    need to show more drama!
