yea b/c this spill isn't the biggest environmental disaster or anything
Hey stupid, when he said "how we look at it" I took it to mean how we look at the entire oil drilling process and there should be no major changes in that respect. If you understood how many offshore wells have been drilled compared to the number of blowouts like the one in the Gulf, then you would know that the risk are not really all that great. What needs to be looked at is the oil companies as well as the governments response time and effectiveness. They should have immediately ignited the oil and had booms readily available.
Wasn't more oil spilled off the Kuwait coast during the first gulf war?
the iraqi's blew all the wells in the country before leaving
