9. It doesn't look like less to me. I know I was staring at the feed
a little earlier thins evening. I foundmyself thinking it looked like it was slowing. I suspect it's wishful thinking on both out parts.

6. Yes my link is gone too. I suspect it's a techno thing. If you
really think about it, it's quite amazing that they have had all those cameras operational for as long as they ave with very little interuption. I kow I'm impressed. My cable co. isn't even that good and that's their job!

7. they're working on it, should be up soon.
I've got three different feeds, all were down, one is being restored, other two are still frozen.

Mud looks the same as an hour ago.

doesn't look like mud to me. The middle brown looks like the same color oil as on the beaches, the lighter brown not sure what that looks like

14. Thx
Looks like its 'working,' from what we've learned; 'stuff' is being shot down/dispersed.

17. I concur. Let's start with the Executive Management Team at BP.
Let's throw them in a vat of their own product. We can pretend they are a pelican, or an otter, or a dolphin. And then, let's line up every American politician that has taken money from the Petroleum Mafia.

Every. Last. One.

20. I wonder if Nielson is measuring viewers for the spill cam.
It would be something if the spill cam had more viewers than some hit TV shows. I've had it on all day long...glued.

I haven't laughed for several days now. It's hard to laugh right now, but that one caught me. Thank you.
