*Breaking* Gulf Disaster: Gulf Oil Spill May Be NINETEEN TIMES Bigger Than Originally Thought
*Breaking*

Gulf oil spill may be 19 times bigger than originally thought
May 19, 2010

WASHINGTON — The latest glimpse of video footage of the oil spill deep under the Gulf of Mexico indicates that around 95,000 barrels, or 4 million gallons, a day of crude oil may be spewing from the leaking wellhead, 19 times the previous estimate, an engineering professor told Congress Wednesday.

New BP underwater video of oil, gas gushing as spill spreads

Russia Today May 19, 2010



The figure of 5,000 barrels, or 210,000 gallons, a day that BP and the federal government have been using for weeks is based on observations of the surface slick made by satellites and aircraft. Even NASA's satellite-based instruments, however, can't see deep into the waters of the gulf, where much of the oil from the gusher seems to be floating. The well is 5,000 feet below the surface.

If so, you should've posted a thread about it.

But it's not so.. it was Thursday.

And it wasn't this... they admitted 10 times.

I posted a 9 page thread about it... anything else to share?

Nobody around here wants to talk about it either. I guess they think that they will be able to pretend it's not happening.

All I hear is, "But, I thought they fixed it with that suction pipe thing..."

I don't give a damn about any money payouts. The damage done here is way beyond what any amount of money can fix.

Most friggin people don't even realize that Katrina didn't even hit New Orleans, it hit Pass Christian, Bay St. Louis Mississippi where it wiped out my sisters and my parents homes. New Orleans only flooded because of there Levees gave way because there crooked politicials lined there pockets instead of spending it to upgrade the levee system........aaahhhhh.

My heart goes out to all the wildlife and living things in the gulf. And all BP and the usa goverment can do is talk in terms of money. Frack them.

I keep trying to tell myself that the entire Gulf won't be affected, that a way to keep it out of the wetlands will be employed, the weather and currents might keep it away from the Texas coast, and that the people who know how to control this are doing all that they can.
You can't be consumed by it. We all have things we do everyday, and that continues as usual. That is, as long as the gas and petroleum in the air don't send us running inland.

But then, I think of what could happen because of this undersea gusher, and
