I don't know about booming methods. The diagram I saw looked reasonable enough - a double v shape to funnel oil into catchment places. But on the other hand in calm water it might be more effective to run a single line. Or maybe there weren't enough booms. Or something.

No doubt there will be swarms of blunders by all sorts of people. Incompetent rescuers will no doubt kill birds they try to rescue. Boom blunders will be a dime a dozen. People are generally pretty hopeless, even if they are doing things they are supposedly qualified for. Hence the spill in the first place with no doubt multiple failures by various parties.

Also, anyone who is so prolifically foul mouthed doesn't have much between their ears. Her anger isn't about the spill it's about her self-importance which is obviously not where she thinks it should be.
