OK, B.P., U.S. Gov't and Media, ... before going and touting "good news" about the Gulf "oil spill" / DISASTER well, maybe it's not time to turn off the lights on this story and move on to more sensational softer safe stories?!?! ... Let us not forget that from the get-go 11 people died on this rig because of a gross negligence and recklessness and, yeah, and then major ripple effects on the local economies, ecosystems and, in general, ethics.
Aug 3rd 2010 100 and some days after this DISASTER you're trying to tout some kind of milestone and gain ? ... But what about all the loss that has happened from the get-go and continued to "spill on" ? ... loss of life = ranging from humans to aquatic (mammals, reptiles, amphibians) and even, well, blades of grass (important grass that acts as feeding grounds and, yeah, a natural barrier from the sea = kind of important in this fragile ecosystem of sea, wetlands, rivers and such that protects this special Gulf region)... loss of jobs, monies and abandoned pets = a way of life for summer 2010 and maybe more to come ...
