    This should not burn for more then a few hours and there should be no subsurface oil getting into the Gulf, IF it was a problem on deck and not from below. Cross our fingers that it was not a well pressure related anomaly !

    Lets all cross our fingers like a friggin two year old. Why don’t you write some friggin letters to the Governor or Mayor. Americans are PATHETIC….. if this happened in Greece you would see really what needs to be done. Will you all go silently to your graves? This incident hasn’t even started. Your whole country will be poisoned. The toxic rains fall on your childrens food yet you act like PUPPETS. OMG WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?
