Hey! Let's not be insulting. That's a rule violation. If you two want to discuss that's fine but there is no point in arguing the issues.
You're right, as always, Rick.Quote:

Everybody is more wrong than right and in the real world the arguement will become more serious. Fuel is just one more thing you should learn to conserve, store and prepare to defend or live without.

Yeahhh, I had to back up and re-read that one. I was about to pm 2d about that pesky 'getting rid of the body in the motel room' issue.Quote:

Welcome to the rest of the civilized world, rebel. Ain't fun, but having a disaster of the proportions we have now is even less fun. And we're gonna feel it for a looooong, long time.Quote:

Well the "cap" is on the pipe and from looking at the video just now, it's doing absolutly nonthing. And even the news is no longer calling this the worst oil spill in the U.S. now its the worst in the world. Maybe a new rule could be oil companys cant drill in water that is deeper then divers can get to. But its a little late now. I think augest is the best case scernio for stoping it more likely october or november. What a disgusting mess.
That's the big problem, as I see it. If this had been in shallow water, I believe it would have been over very quickly. Unfortunately some groups have put enough pressure on Washington that the in-shore wells are very difficult to get authorization for. Our own policies have, IMO contributed to this disaster.Quote:

Looks like its leaking/gushing twice as bad as before .Quote:

I thought some of you might be interested in exactly what the Deepwater Horizon rig was. Here's a pic of it's sister rig, Deepwater Nautilus, being transported. Below that is a link that will give you all the specifics on the platform.

Proof of BP media black out.

That's pretty funny. You're going to lay that at the doorstep of BP, huh? Okay. Sounds like a couple of guys that don't know chiz from chizenolla to me.
Not for nothin...but they are right. Maybe the BP employees don't want to be bothered by the media on their lunch breaks. They're working hard and long hours to clean up this mess on THEIR dollar, leave the employees alone.
We get enough televised media about what's going on from the press releases and the BP spokes people. Interviewing the workers on their lunch break, keeps them from getting work done and is a distraction from their productivity. Like every other company, BP is required to provide a safe work environment, free of disruption and if the sheriffs department allows for them to HAVE a security staff, that security staff is ALLOWED to secure the area.
The media is out of line in this...like that's anything new. They don't just barge into YOUR work place and demand to talk to you, because it's still private property. While they are cleaning the Gulf and the beaches, they MUST treat them as though they are as you would your private work place.
Leave them the hell alone and let them get their work done.
Um, The Sheriff has nothing to do with them having a security staff, I can hire a security guard to follow me around town if i wish,
and Rick, I seen on Cnn , the contract that BP made the employees sign said they were not allowed to talk to the media, BP said that was taken out of context, The Point is this, "private security" would have ZERO authority to keep anyone off of a public beach, Only LEO or other "Official agency" can do that, "Private security" only has authority on "Private Property".
