In my last post I mentioned 290,000 gallons of oil spilled into the ocean, but time to revise that naivity with the truth that has now come out. Based upon new calculations this is epic! Now it’s said that there are over 200,000 gallons per day which means this will hit the size of the Exxon disaster in less than 60 days. we are talking about June 21. Over 25million birds and other animals are now at risk.

Officials said that before the explosion there were 700,000 gallons of diesel fuel on board the semi-submersible platform and it had been drilling 8,000 barrels, or 336,000 gallons, of oil a day.

Just south of Mississippi there is an oil spill that is spewing out thousands of gallons of oil into the ocean, killing fish, and ocean creatures as it goes. It is now at least a mile long. When will we learn to start conserving our resources and safeguards to prevent, or at least contain such a thing. The solution is weeks away. Current thought and discussion revolves around how to save commercial fisheries, leisure areas, etc. Not sure if there is a thought of the irresponsiblity of all of this on wildlife.

Remember when in 1989 the Exxon Valdez spilled over 10.8 million gallons. So far the current disaster has spilled overĀ  290,000 gallons of oil. Even if this spill is not as big as the Exxon spill, it will still have devastating repercussions for the environment.

Wow! That was a 6.9 in Baja that was felt like a 3-4 pointer in the North County San Diego where I am. Ah, I remember the days of one when I was a kid that was slightly greater than this. But not in a long while have we felt the shaking.

So this quake was about .1 percent less than the earthquake in Haiti and we have felt to miles away.
