Q. Aside from the plumes, what did your group find?


It just doesn't matter. Totally IMMATERIAL.

The Superdome will hold 1.2 Billion Gallons. The leak, even the worst case scenario, is about 200,000,000 Gallons, or the Superdome 1/6 of the way full.

The Gulf holds about 6.43 * 10^17 gallons, leaving a proportion of oil in the Gulf of

0.00000000003110.

Totally insignificant and without consequence. Just as was the Ixtoc 1 spill, which most people here had never heard of before the Gulf Spill.

Anyone who claims this spill is an environmental disaster is either an idiot or a liar. The REAL disaster was Obama's mishandling of it.
