Can A One Billion Pound Oil Spill Disappear?
Article by Klaus H Hemsath.<br>Large oil patches vanished when tropical storm Bonnie crossed the Gulf. Flyovers observed seemingly clean surface waters. A different picture emerges after accounting for the disappearance of oil by evaporation and by oil plume formation.

One billion pounds of tarballs will become an endless nuisance for beach communities depending on tourists.

The Main Stream Media And the Void It Leaves Behind

A Whale - A Missed Opportunity
Article by Klaus H Hemsath.<br>After mounting a second shut-off device on its dysfunctional blow out preventer, BP must now skim close to 200 million gallons of crude oil from the surface of the Gulf. The A-Whale, a Taiwanese supertanker converted for oil skimming duties, arrived in the Gulf, tried its luck at skimming, and discovered that the conversion does not work. The chance of cleaning the Gulf quickly was missed and American technology could not assist either.

Despite the dire consequences we persist in making kings.
