Since most of your government is bought and paid for by the oil companies (or related industries), it is not really shocking that drilling has been allowed again to be honest...

Love powered? That thing's going to be out of fuel in this thread.

Is that the love between a man and a woman or the love for a fine Cuban cigar?

Or the love of a monster truck crushing helpless cars underneath its gigantic frame, which by the way is actually powered by gas?

I almost always agree with Albatross, I can't see why anyone wouldn't.

My contempt for politicians is relatively universal. Though at least those in the USA have access to better rent boys...

I think I am rather sad that I am on your ignore list. Perhaps it is because I offended you in prior posts?


People who put you on ignore but then prance around telling you they are ignoring you are the worst kind of internet drama queens...

Well, I for one am glad to see that this vital segment of the local economy could be on the mend. The worst thing that could happen IMO is if the Deepwater Horizon is allowed to become the Three Mile Island of the drilling industry.

- Current estaimates are 3,000 - 5,000 jobs are gone.
- Moratorium is off but if you don't permit them or make the costs too high its irrelevant. Thats whats being done in shallow water currently. Permits are being delayed.
Making CEO's signoff on safety, a sort of Sarbanes Oxley for the Gulf of Mexico is going to have a serious impact.
