More on the spill
I asked my friend, a marine biologist who knows Louisiana wetlands better than most to comment on ProPublica’s article about the oil spill – his response:
Where do I start? Use up the worlds supply of a material they don’t like employing? Ok. Headaches, nausea and repro issues in high doses? Tequila? Valdez? Cold water ecosystem vs Gulf of Mexico dynamics? Take a swim… Next!
What do THEY suggest? Criticism is easy. Better ideas are few and far between. It’s a big giant in situ study taking place. Any new guesses? Take a shot at it. Nothing is good about this with the exception of learning by mistake or success. The tuition may be quite the pill to swallow but no gasoline, plastics… You decide!
I saw a sign being towed behind an airplane flying above Jazz Fest protesting drilling. What the fuck? Aviation fuel… daaaaa! Plastic sign… get real.
The answer? I’m waiting for it too. Oh, I got it. God’s will!
