Run a Google search on the site owner if you want a chuckle. I haven't read the Anderson Cooper piece yet, but given how many of those guys are going into the area and picking up the oil etc, not always safely. That said they should be allwed access to the scene and crews.

I did. This covers it pretty well.

And now people are freaking out about the almost 30,000 un-used wells near the Gulf. A lot of these wells could be slowly leaking, possibly for decades. Some of them only got a temporary cap despite being out of use for 40 years.

It is interesting that it matches the Gulf Dead zone.
