If I didn't know what this picture was of, I would think it was an amazingly beautiful photo. However knowing full well what it is and what it means makes me nauseated...

It's baffling to me as well, I don't live near the situation, but you can't be tellin' people to relax, it is devastating.


whoa whoa whoa. I think you might have been replying to the wrong person. Trust me, I know this is a huge deal. But hey, I know it is possible to make mistakes when attempting to quote or reply to someone, so no worries.

Yeah definitely no more than a foot or so at most, so not surfable anyway. I would be livid if this happened anywhere near my home town (or any decent beach for that matter) so I can only imagine how distressing it would be for those who actually live near and use this beach.

I thought it was eerily beautiful as well, the way the oil spots can be seen through the water. But then when you actually think about what you're seeing, its disgusting.

It all comes down to how each person reacts, I suppose its the fact that it shows no normal water, but rather just the polluted form performing an action which we normally see with pristine blue waters, the wave that is. I'm not saying that the above images aren't horrible, they are, and maybe putting them on scales is wrong as well, but this is just my personal opinion, nothing more.

I don't know...

It would probably be worse because kitties are cuter...

Swimming kitties, that would be a sight.

I think that I read that pic was taken 90 miles from the spill in Alabama. I could be mistaken though.


Yep... It's right off the coast of alabama... But 90 miles from the leak...


I wish they would stop using the word spill... Its not a spill

Good eye... didn't even pick up on the fact that its still constantly being referred to as a 'spill'.

BP 'major leak' would be a more appropriate term.

For Christ's sake, you people ... it's just a bloody oil spill

May I recommend moving closer to this beach?



Wow, that's graphic.

I mean look at that thing, it's almost like I can taste it .

This whole thing just sucks!
