I'm surprised we don't have a thread on this. And I figured might be worthwhile to discuss. Reading HP today I found
this:
Quote:
Scientists are finding enormous oil plumes in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico, including one as large as 10 miles long, 3 miles wide and 300 feet thick in spots.

BP has resisted entreaties from scientists that they be allowed to use sophisticated instruments at the ocean floor that would give a far more accurate picture of how much oil is really gushing from the well.

I think the gov't should slap them with a major fine and a cap on how far they can raise the prices due to the fine. This whole situation is appalling in how it's been dealt with and how the resolution to stop it has been going on. All 3 of the companies CEos should be made to swim through that crap.
More than ever, it has made me NOT want to get a license and drive a car.
