what a waste of fuel…..they should be pay more attention!
Terrible
Ironic this should occur so close to President Obama opening up more coastline waters for oil drilling. Drill baby drill has become spill baby spill. The high cost of oil just got higher.
How stupid is this disaster , going out that far with broken equipment. How careless, unbelievable!!!!
Does anyone really know how bad the contamination really is (not that it has been a year since the spill)… some folks think that once the media finds a new thing to talk about, it must mean the problem was solved.
