re: BP spill and some other questions...

For the lucky few that went into the Biloxi Marsh during the fishing moratorium, it was something very special. Not only were the fish there, they were there in huge numbers. With commercial fishing closed the ecosystem exploded with life in a very short amount of time.

While I think the effects of the spill will not be clear anytime soon, I am willing to bet they are far worse than anticipated. However, judging from what I saw during the moratorium, I think our abuse of the fishery is exponentially worse.
