What utter bullshit! I wanted to spit at him and that is so unlike me.
Does anyone here know if BP is still spraying dispersant?

They spray it directly into the oil as it is released from the leak.

I have been saying this all along.
The cap was knocked off yesterday by a sub spraying the dispersant.
This is why I am so pissed off at the President.

4. I actually heard about the dispersant on AC 360 last night. Apparently the |
|
EPA told them to reduce the amount they were using by 75%, and the person to whom AC was speaking believed they had reduced it by about 68%.
This still doesn't answer the question about when they EPA told BP to use a different one and BP said none was available, what do they use in other countries where this particular one is banned?
The dispersant mess is one of the aspects that gets me the most angry.

Must be the tortoise vs the hare. Except the hare quit and was replaced by another tortoise. And then some BP asshole shot both of them with tranquilizer darts.
