I hope the family's of the 11 lost men have the wherewithal to hang in there until they can get their due from BP.
It really tears me up to see the guys on the floor ignored, exploited, and in this case ultimately killed due to management's stupidity.

It is far more than just the families of those men. There are at least tens of thousands families in that area whose lives have been severely disrupted by this. And there are a lot more businesses in supply chains all over the country whose lives/businesses are being at least mildly disrupted. NPR did a nice story on this sometimes in the last couple of days, interviewing people around the country who depend on the fish from the Gulf who have had to find substitutes or who are just working down inventory and wondering what will happen when it is gone.
