Why dont you ask OP whether the Chinese are to benefit or not from whatever it is that's being on its way.

So who lives near the GOM?

What's your personal experience?

The reports of dead zones, illness, whatever, seem to me to be based more on hysteria than fact.

I've taken a look at the floridaspill site and see little on offer.

I've watched TV crews take samples from the GOM without detection or prosecution, are you telling me that it's impossible to get a water sample? I don't believe it! If I was so concerned I would be down there and nothing would prevent me from satisfying myself with my own analysis.
