This soap topic is killing me. One caller, Marc made more sense than the experts they had on there. This stuff doesn't make the oil go away, it just sinks it and too me thats not the solution. Anybody in the oilfield can tell you if your caught spraying soap on a spill they will arrest you.

You dont have to be in the oilfield to know this.
If you dont report a spill they will fine you, now if you get caught trying to cover it up, then they will put you to death.

Always, it's just that talk radio likes to exploit the dumbest of the dumb.

oil at the bottom of the sea where mother nature can slowly clean it up > oil in uncleanable, unfixable marsh

you can recover it and take it out of the ecosystem if its floating and yes you can clean it in the marsh.

i'm not an engineer or a chemist, but can you explain how you'd go about taking oil out of mud?

Sinking oil in 1,000 - 5,000 feet of water is OK in my book.
Sinking oil in 1-5 foot of water in the bays and marshes on oyster beds and red fish grounds. Is not good in my book.

Gulf storm activity could eventually put that stuff on land and marshes anyway IMO

i don't think even a hurricane can stir up oil on the seabed.
but i could be wrong.

Oil at the bottom of the sea is okay. There is tons of oil released into the bottom of the sea all the time. Nature has a way of purging itself, especially the sea.
Oil is a natural product, especially the stuff leaking into the sea at the moment. It has not been refined at all. If we were to leave it to nature to fix, then she would have it repaired faster and better than we could ever do.
And there is historical evidence of this. Spill in France/Belgium vs Exxon Valdez.

There was a marine biologist on tv saying that the oil is okay on the bottom bc there is microbes and other organisms that will eat the oil.

You dont think that it will sink and stay there do you. When it sinks, no one will never know where it will end up. It will make its way to land somewhere. It could be as far south South Texas/mexico or all the way to Key west.

Define tons of oil? Oil is released at the bottom of the sea, but I would not venture out and say tons of it. Not at one time anyway.

Did he specify how much oil?

No but that while it would take awhile before it was all gone, that it would be much less impact-full on the bottom
