Well you folks there have had quite the run of bad luck.

Now your local fishing, oyster and shrimping industry will be wiped
out for decades.

Katrina was a combination of forces of nature and bad government
decisions about the levee system but this one is entirely
man made.

I was reading where another oil nation in S. America employed
offshore drilling but they mandate TWO blowout preventers while
B.P. used but the one for reasons of bottom line profits due to additional
costs involved with employing two.

That was rather short sighted thinking as regards to their fiduciary
obligation to clean this mess up.
