(OT) BP oil crap

Pressure there is only about 2300 psi. No big deal, as long as you prepare for it.

By the way, USA Today published an article that the oil slick dispersants have now been tested by the Gummint (a few decades AFTER they were tested by competent authorities like Warren Springs) and has found they pose no toxicity problems.

So all the panty wearing !!!Toxic CHEMICALS!!! alarmists can STFU.

Everybody knows chemicals are bad. All chemicals are man-made and are highly toxic and deadly.

Nature does not make chemicals; nature is natural and pure and safe and chemical-free.

Everybody knows all this. What's wrong with you?

Thanks, Tegger... I needed that slap :-)

Actually, it was someone in Louisiana who asked BP, Why isn't the glass on the pressure gauges cracked.I got to wondering about that too.I think they use pressure sensing devices which sends a signal up to the surface. cuhulin

Yeah, that hydrogen hydroxide will get you every time. We have lots of folks die from it every year here in Minnesota, land of ten thousand lakes.

Sheesh, if chemicals are so bad for you, why is everybody smoking so much crack?

When I was a teenager, "crack" was a different thing, although just as enjoyable.

There used to be a Shack's welding shop not far from me.Part of their radio commercial was, We can weld anything but the crack of Dawn.

And Dawn was a good old gal. cuhulin

Yeah, many of us woke up at the crack of Dawn, bless her heart.
