It's amazing to me the wide difference of opinions

between different people on this spill. Whether it be the opinion of how bad this thing really is, to the clean up outcome in the end (long term/short term effects,etc) and so on...
I was in Tallahassee this week and was told by a lineman (Blue Collar Utility worker) that he is praying for a hurricane to hit so he can get some overtime!! It's quite obvious that this guy has no F--King clue as to what the significance of a bad hurricane would do to the entire gulf coast including his beloved Florida. Certainly his "want" for overtime is money driven but common sense tells you that one would be willing to sacrifice a little money from overtime to avoid a catastrophic storm that could literally cripple the economy that is the Fl panhandle (TOURISM)...
All in all people are going to have varying opinions and that is a given... but some people are just clueless and it amazes me how freaking dumb people really are..

no surprise there...people=stupid. i fall in that category daily.
i hear ya though...nobody (including BP or the Govt) has any clue how this will all play out. hopefully in the end, those of us who are scared to death about the outcome will be wrong and the camp that thinks "everything is gonna be fine" will be right!
