Gulf Oil Slick

Monday is when BP will be announcing its 2nd quarter earnings..... ought to be interesting!

Last week BP's Tony Baloney the CEO was attempting to round up new investers in the Middle East. This kind of gives me hope that BP might try to keep itself solvent which seems better in terms of it actually being in this for the long haul and making restitution.

I know, I know, I am probably being far too optimistic... Sometimes, however, I do think of what is at stake for big oil in this in terms of what BP does. This could prove to be one major blemish the industry world wide that it cannot afford.

Guess I am more of a glass half-full kind of person. Or I am really in deep denial! Just having a huge problem thinking about the people in the Gulf that really need BP to pay up.

So, do you all think we will finally get the message that alternative fuels must be developed and put the resources in this that are vitally needed?
