Let's hope there's one more parallel: the area affected by that spill has since recovered a lot better than many thought it would.

AS MUCH as I hate that CRAZY woman...........she's right in this case.
It is unfortunate that offshore drilling companies are MORONS when it comes to being able to STOP a leak.
I can see some serious legislation and regulation coming from this.

I have never watched her more than 5 seconds (the time it takes to change the channel) because she is so irritating. Interesting though--I watched the whole thing. 1979 Gulf well leaked about 30000barrels a day for 9 months and it was only in 200 feet of water.
