and now that everyone knows you can have a hundred day gusher in the middle of the gulf with little to no impact on the gulf, oil drilling will flourish.

the spill is relative the gloom and doom, it's the end of the world as we know it type of crap.

all of those people you are talking about are being inconvenienced at the moment. that is all.

Frozen shrimp(IQF) or imported shrimp?

Most grocery stores tend to use imported shrimp anyway.

It just boils down to this, some people don't care if it doesn't affect them. Our fishing industry has been decimated in the last 20 years due to industry regulations, natural disasters, and mainly imports. People want Louisiana seafood but aren't doing anything about it and one day it will be only a specialty item because most people are just concerned with price and will buy imports instead.
