I don't like Salazar being BP's rubber stamp. there are MUCH better choices out there.

Let's see what the dollar cost will be for the MMS sliding on BP(and others) environmental requirements etc.

New, modern BOP = $500,000
Cost of blown well = unknown but up to $1,000,000,000,000

.....but finally somebody is doing something. He just "bought" me a new refrigerator which uses barely more than 1 KWH/day. Whatta guy.

Thanks for this good point. I just bought a LG washing machine and got the $200 Federal refund along with the PG&E and water refund. Wonderful machine. Washes clothes well, uses less water and detergent and has cut the drying time by 25%

Seeing this saving, I am tempted to replace my 15 year old refrigerator under this "Cash for Clunker" appliance program which I believe kicked off on the symbolic Earth Day.

I suspect "No Drama Obama" is upto something with the oil spill.
