Oil Disaster Will Be End of Life As We Know It

[the_poet]

This is it. It's over. Get ready for the most insane year of your life. 5 years. 10 years. One day you will look back at your life right now and think about how easy it was, how innocent. We are on the cusp of total collapse, right at the precipice.

If you're like most people you probably have already decided that I am exaggerating without knowing why I am saying this. Well let me make it clear that I also wish I was exaggerating. I don't sell survival equipment or gold. My job is not recession proof. I have a family. I didn't wake up today and randomly decide to declare that this is the end of life as we know it. But I do research. I make calls and tune into radio, scouring the internet for news clips and analysis. I make a concerted effort to only quote trustworthy sources. The information that has emerged over the past few days confirms fears that this is actually an "Armageddon" event. I am being completely serious.

Sort of is on schedule for 2012, that was an interesting read. Honestly have to say I always enjoy a good conspiracy theory.

IMO this was the best reply to the blog but with more concern for the immediate impact.....

I detect chicken little for sure. This is an electronic version of the guy standing on the corner holding a sign saying, "The end is near!"

Oil wells are not 'limitless'. If they were, we would never have to drill another one. This one will blow out at some point.

The spill of 1979, bigger than this one did not end life in Texas or Mexico. Nature has a way of repairing man's mess-up's better than man can. Some of the oil/sludge/tar from that spill is encased in ocean growth on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. Where did the rest of it go? Reclaimed in some way by the ocean.

This well is not tapped into the 'whole' of the inside of the earth and 'she's gonna blow!'. Don't think so.

It's amazing that the Internet is full of opinions of people that have nothing better to do that spew out junk on their keyboard. I have a job... speaking of that, I have to get back to work.

Just like the religionists are right and the scientists are right. I just heard on the radio while making my cup of tea they just put a new cap on and are going to be testing it today, be kinda ironic if it works dontcha think??

When the end of the world comes, it will be something that absolutely nobody expected.

So stop worrying. You won't know what hit you when it happens. The fact that so many are worried about this means that it's not the end.

I suspect miniature dachshunds may finally lead to our destruction, but that's just speculation.

By the way.. I found the link to the discovery of asphalt volcanoes in the Gulf very interesting http://www.marum.de/en/Asphalt_volcanoes_discovered.html - thanks for that.

I'm more concern with the fishes and corals. How will they survive

Man, I hope it's not true.

Man, I hope it's not true.

I heard it on the news. Oh. it's a torture to the water species.

 

[liquidcherry]

unfortunately the OP was right with some comments about the tortured ocean grounds, newest development is that they found some other leak at the ocean ground b/c of the ruptured integrity of the well...that is scary \\

If it is the end of the world and all one can do is lie around to complain about it, that doesn't say much for our species now does it.
