What's all this fuss about life from the Dead Sea being found in the Gulf of Mexico?
What’s the norm for life 5,000 feet below the surface? So far the article says it’s a dead zone but what should be there?
IBTZ
OK, that’s it. Wrap it up here. No more cars, bicycles for everyone! Got it? Ok, let’s move on!
Thought it was “nothing to see here, move along”...
You mean, millions of barrels of oil spilling into waters we fish in is a bad thing?
duh
That’s what happens when things die, they fall down down down and the bottom dwellers feed on them.
Shame....all that wasted oil!
If this had happened under Bush and a GOP Congress, we would still be hearing from the MSM about their incompetence.
What's this stuff, Covert Oil?
And, what's usually cookin' a mile deep in the Gulf? Is this "Dead Sea Life" unusual? The lyin' libs would have us believe that the floor of the Gulf usually looks like New York City at noon, but now EVERYTHING-YES EVERYTHING is dead and gone.
Me, I ain't buying this Bullchit anymore that I'm buying their GW crap.
Is ABC News violating the blackout on any news that could make Obama look bad?
Maybe they're afraid of you and are faking it Sam. Any pictures to verify?
According to http://www.gulfmex.org/facts.htm, The total area of the Gulf is about 600,000 square miles.
Do the math.
Hello, the oil is 5000 ft down on the bottom.
Earth to environmental wackos: nobody fishes down there or scuba dives, or water skis.
Commercial and residential activities happen way above the bottom.
Oil sinks?
How much sea life is “normal” at 5000 feet, particularly in that part of the Gulf?
Further, how much research was done PRIOR to the spill that can be used as a baseline to compare the current status?
OR is this just another pile of scare tactics aimed at shutting down the US oil industry? We are suppose to act with responsibility for our world, but on the other hand, far too often, “some” would prefer to react without having the facts or evidence necessary to make good decisions.
Crap! This is just a liberal Obama supporter giving him cover for the NEW drilling moratorium he imposed last week. I bet most scientists and oceanographer would say the BP spill had little impact on the Gulf.
Things are really bleak at 5000 feet, where not a bit of light ever shines. There appears to be little life, where there is otherwise...little life. Yep. It's a tragedy of massive proportions. I'm for sure canceling my deep sea vacation this year, and there's no way I'm going to eat any cuttlefish for a while.
There is not much life at 5000 feet.
Natural bacteria break the oil down.
And your point is?
The bottom of any ocean is largely dead. The Gulf of Mexico is notable in that it’s bottom leaks oil like a seive.
