>>It has everything to do with it. The purpose of the moratorium is to figure out what went wrong and try to prevent it in the future so that these fishermen will have their jobs.<<

So you are telling me the fishermen want the moratorium lifted? Where did you get that idea?

That sounds like a right wing idea. There is nothing to figure out except the human condition. It is like nuclear power plants or nuclear weapons. Keep them around long enough and there will be a melt down or a war. It is a certainty. Statisticians have even done probabilities on it.

So the irony is that there is nothing to figure out. If you do enough deep water drilling you will get a gusher like this every once in a while.

So the real question is, are you willing to put up with a periodic disaster like what is going on in the gulf.

Add that pollution to everything else and we are really leaving a destroyed planet to our kids.
