Yes Hoop - please keep posting !

Site members who remember the Broadwater matter will remember how nuts these things make me. I never believed that the Broadwater facility would or could ever blow up, but with the LNG explosion this spring and now this, I feel reminded that worst case situations can and do happen and the public underwrites the risks.

My heart is breaking for the people and the ecosystem in the gulf.

All we can do now is learn, more regulation . . . less regulation . . . its all bull$hit. Unless WE THE PEOPLE accept that our addicion to cheep petroleum forces us into these silly risks and expenditures we will not be able to avoid them.

If this is a situation makes you angry . . . use less pertoleum !
