"Oh, so in other words, you are just yapping and don’t have any documentation to support your contention that corexit is wonderful. I thought so. Real smart people don’t come on with a blown up Leftist act of superiority."

Got plenty. Just look back at those threads. But the science is REALLY SIMPLE, despite evidently being too complex for you to grasp. If you take the longest half-lived CoRexit component at the highest concentration it was MEASURED at in the Gulf (1 ppm) at the height of its period of maximum release, after 21 days, you have 0.5 ppm, after 42 days, you have 0.25 ppm, after 63 days, you have 0.125 ppm. After 84 days you have 62.5 ppb. And in addition to that totally predictable concentration decrease based on PURE CHEMISTRY, you also have to add the effects of continued dilution AND the fact that the Gulf bacteria eat "CoRexit-type" compounds better than they do oil.

The simple fact is that any CoRexit released to treat the spill is GONE, GONE, GONE. And anybody who says they are finding it probably faked the samples.

And no, no "blown up Leftist act of superiority is involved", whatever you might mean by that phrase. Just hard scientific facts. It's your choice to ignore those facts and remain an ignorant fool.

Just hard scientific facts.

Enviros don't recognize "hard scientific facts".

It's against their religion.
