Dead Dino Update: Massive find in shallow Gulf Waters

[CrusaderFrank]

I realize many of you still labor under the delusion that "Fossil fuels" come from long dead dinosaurs, so first let's have a moment of silence for the billions of velicoraptors who died on that spot oh so long ago, then you can post how:

1. The find won't make a difference

2. The Find will melt the ice caps both on Earth and Mars and

3. It's ok if the Chinese drill here

McMoRan Exploration Co. today announced what it said could be one of the largest oil and natural gas discoveries in the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico in decades.

The discovery was made at the Davy Jones ultra-deep prospect located on South Marsh Island Block 230 in about 20 feet of water and 10 miles off the Louisiana coast, the New Orleans company and Energy XXI, one of its Houston partners in the project, said in statements this morning."

Actually, fossil fuels come from ancient PLANT material. Thanks for playing.

Wait a minute here! Are you saying that Oil is natural? I thought it was invented by the Bush/Halliburton industrial complex to enslave us and destroy the planet!

Louisianians won't care about drilling off their coast. Now if the find had been off Palm Beach, Florida.....

Yes. We have oil off the coast of Florida but they won't drill for it. The Chinese are slant drilling for it now. This deposit runs from Latin America, the Caribbean and the Gulf coast of Florida. The depost is estimated to be between from 4.6 to 9.3 billion gallons. This compares to the 4-10 billioin estimated to be in the ANWAR.

Our leaders are morons.

Jeb did get lots of oil money from outside of FL in his run for Guv there.

Drill baby drill.

 

[rdean]

Gawd put bones in the ground for two reasons:

1. So we can see what creatures on other planets look like.

2. To give dogs something to dig up.

 

[kwc57]

Yet with modern technology we can take biomass and convert it to various forms of energy. Hmmmmm?

Not just soylent green now?

NOpe FL and the east coast as well.

big oil does not want to drill there though, just get leases locked up.

LOL, Ohh I am sure. However oil stocks dropped today.

 

[garyd]

What abysmal idiocy. Of cou8rse big oil would love to drill. Exxon etc now buy more oil than they produce if you think they woudn't love to turn that statistic around you ar either crazy or stupid or some combination of the two.

Let's let them drill, put a big Sarah Palin style windfall profits tax on it, and then every American can get a big government check from it. Right around Christmas would be nice.

Gallons?

Barrels, more likely.

It's much cheaper to import oil than drill for it domestically. Much cheaper.
