Re: CNBC just announced Matt Simmons is dead
If massive quantities of oil is coming out of the seafloor in large cracks, why aren't we still seeing huge mats of tar and oil coming to the beaches?

I think the well is dead.
 Quoting: Bullfrog



Even with massive amounts of dispersant being used, oil still washed up on the beaches while the well was gushing. Where is it now? The media is telling us it is all but gone. Can any gulf coast resident tell us different?

Re: CNBC just announced Matt Simmons is dead
what kind of a adult guy drowns in his own house pool?

what are the odds on that?

===

Exactly the same odds as Osweld shooting three bullets similtaniously from different locations..


Exactly the same odds of three steel sky scrapers turning to dust in seconds on one day.

All Even money bets i would say



About the same odds as Larry silverslime Buying the asbestos ridden twin towers for 125 million, changing the insurance polices to cover terrorist acts, having the buildings destroyed by terrorists three weeks later and then collecting 7 billion in an insurance payout.

Even money bet.

About the same odds of dying from a heart-attack which was caused by a freak accidental electricution coming from your microphone after you've just given the most grilling interview that was ever given to the then candidate (and now president).

Tim Russert from Meet the Press was zapped by his microphone--him, after decades of using a mike, gets some freak zapping...

I have a house in Santa Rosa Beach about 20 miles east of Destin. I was just there last week. No oil on the beach. The only thing I ever saw was a few tar balls around the end of June. The thing I noticed the most when I was down there was the media hype. A few tar balls would wash up, and national media would swarm around it, take close up pictures. Then when you turned on the news, it would give the impression that the whole beach was covered.
Reality, the tar balls were in a spot about 10 yards long and a kid with a shovel could have cleaned them up. The rest of the beach was fine. Hell, I even have a "Jar of Tar balls" on my desk. It was more fun than picking up sea shells.

Yeah that's right oil from the gulf is well above the normal in terms of radioactivity.

Did you know that scrap yards won't take normal oil pipes... why? Because they are radioactive! Even the normal ones, just a little bit, but enough to be a concern.

The level of radioactivity in a deposit is generally correlated with the amount of gas in a deposit for a number of geological factors... most producing wells are about 5% gas.

This well is about 40% gas.

Radioactive oil doom on. So fucking metal. rockon

When you say, "the rest of the beach was fine" you really mean it was covered with an invisible mix of dispersant and oil.

Rip Kirby/USF Coastal Geologist: “The particular oil product that’s in here, was blown there.”

Rip Kirby/USF Coastal Geologist: “This is where people scrape their feet. See all the oil right there?”

The stuff was everywhere, a few inches into the sand, a light dusting on top and still more washing in."

Re: CNBC just announced Matt Simmons is dead
Does anyone have the link to the last time Matt Simmons was taped? I'm just throwing this out, but if he sensed he was at the cusp of something that would cause him to be in danger, perhaps he said so in a way. You know, dropped anyone who truly listened to him some hint of him sensing that.

I know there was an absence of him from 7/15 onwardly. Did he do any interviews or anything after 7/15?

Thanks so much if anyone knows. I've tried searching, but the entire search is filled with the news of today, his death. Maybe some avid Matt Simmons follower could give the link to his last interview.

Breaking news: Matt Simmons, famous for his controversial criticisms of BP and the true undisclosed nature of the oil disaster in the Gulf, is dead.

From WLBZ:

The Knox County Sheriff's Department says Matthew Simmons, the founder of the Ocean Energy Institute, drowned at his house on North Haven late Sunday night.

Simmons was a leading investment banker for the energy industry and had recently retired to work full time on the new Ocean Energy Institute.

He was a leading proponent of offshore wind power and had started raising money to develop and build offshore turbines.

Let's not respond to this one... he's being intentionally dense.

At this point I hope we are all sophisticated enough to know that we are talking about things in the ppm concentration level in the vast majority of places and not huge globs of things.

The globs of things (heaviest components) are near the bottom.

[link to blog.alexanderhiggins.com]

"Only 2% of the oil released in a deepwater blowout may actually make it to the surface. That’s as little as 2% naturally without the use of dispersants. Add dispersants into the equation and it could be less then one percent of oil that makes it to the surface.
None of the methane released from the deepwater blowout made it to the surface. The study found that released natural gas may dissolve completely within the water column if it is released from a deep enough depth relative to the gas flow rate."
