    No one likes what happened to the men that were killed and their families or the coastal environmental damage. Ruining a major oil company and stopping off shore drilling will not bring either back.

    I wish the Media would focus on the ones who lost their lives and livelihood as much as the 6 oil laden pelicans on TV.You could kill 50 thousand pelicans in La. and not even make a dent in the pelican population in that state.Ain't know one crying over all the dead snow geese on the Katy praire each winter from hunters.Maybe shutting down the fishing in the region for a while will make it better in the long run if it has a chance to recover from commercial fishing and longliners.I bet Longliners kill more tuna, swordfish, and othe expendable fish each season than this spill. How many ducks you think those Cajun's eat every year and were worried about a few hundred pelicans.How many people can name any of the ones that lost their life in the explosion? thats who we should be focusing on is their familys,children and grandchildren.Nope gotta glorify these pelicans and give'em a bath.With all the snakes in the marsh I wonder how will get washed clean like a pelican. Haven't seen 1 netura rat being washed off and there are gazillion of those in Grand Isle.No glamor in a snake or a netura rat....or dead oilfield hand....

We'd all be speaking German if it werent for the oil business. I just believe that BP totally f**** this up and I believe that BP will never be the same as weve known it.

    I'm really really really dammm happy I dont own any BP stock either. but unfortuantely, im not sure owning a marina is any better.

    You're right on the money. Many people in the country and unfortunately also the government have a knee jerk reaction without considering the effects.......but a New Orleans oil service company (crew boats) has filed in federal court against the Interior Department for the capricious halting of deep water drilling for 6 months without cause.

    Like i ask Sneeky ,its just me but if they would have pumped the cement and mud right and shut the well with pressure they would loose there lease,if they recover while flowing they can keep the lease which is a good hole?

    I think they deserve to be and I believe that will happen.

    I don't see that happening but you never know. I still don't understand all the hate. BP is pumping lot of money into this and doing everything they can to get it under control. Gater

    I think BP should wind up being owned by the state of Lousiana.
