>> am not really sure the skimmers are the answer (the spill may be too big and the tankers can't hold this toxic crap forever), but, if they are not, I'd like to hear that they have been considered and rejected for some reason. I haven't heard that yet.<<

The dutch said the skimmers would work well. We should have had many of them right around the spill first thing. 100 or more ringing the area and no dispersants so all the oil came to the top.

Then use safer disperants on the outer rings. That is what the dutch said and they are the pros.

I spent two years in Valdez representing the Department of Health and Social Servics and governors office on the Valdez oil spill.

And we should have known from day 1 P would lie non stop about evreything. They did it in Valdez, as did Exxon.

They know litigation is the path for corporations, not mitigation!!, in this country.

After 20 years of litigation the supreme court reduced the punitive damages from 5 billion to 500 million. And 8,000 of the litigants had died by then.

That is a purely criminal supreme court decision to help out big oil.

Americans need to understand who is screwing them over. Not doing a great job so far.
