As of this morning oil has hit the Florida Keys and most likely will be working its way up the coast line. Here is a link fro CNN I thought you would all find AMAZING if it wasn't posted already.

Cleanup solutions are great.....once the spill is capped.  Until then, considering this is spilling 70k to 200k a day andy cleanup action is like putting a coat of paint on a crackhouse.  This spill needs to be stopped and it needs to be stopped now!  Every option needs to be exhausted before the relief well, which irionically also doesn't guarantee to stop the leak.  Do poeple realize there's about a gizillion gallons of oil under there?  Do people no see how drastically this can change our ecosystem and life as we know it!!??

damage to the enviroment and future generations could be just as bad if not worse than a nuclear fallout

In the end this will be far worse than anyone could have imagined! My brother lives in Tampa Fl, and said there DO have slicks there. He pulled his boat and jetski's out of the water yesterday and there was oil on the hull.

wont be long now before the oil is on our beaches and gas costs $10 a gallon. i remember that they used to have deep diving suits that looked perfect for this work. why are they using robots at 5000 feet when they can send divers in suits to 13000 feet?

because the oil pressure is a TON PER SQUARE INCH
