The deadly combination of Oil and Corexit 9500 is creating a toxic concoction that is threatening marine and land life including humans within a 200 mile radius of Deepwater Horizon located about 50 miles from the coast of Louisiana.
Plans are being put in place for mandatory evacuation of the following 18 Gulf coast cities:
New Orleans
Baton Rouge
Mandeville
Hammond
Houma
Belle Chase
Chalmette
Slidell
Biloxi
Gulfport
Pensacola
Hattiesburg
Mobile
Bay Minette
Fort Walton Beach
Panama City

http://tinyurl.com/25wpsrt The highly volatile and inflammable oil vapors can be carried by hurricane winds into a major city along the Gulf Coast and cause a firestorm burning the place from top to bottom.
http://tinyurl.com/2ba4sh4 John Wathen presents a 9-minute video to show the extent of the oil spill when he flew over the Gulf on June 21st. It is disturbing to see pods of dolphins on their death throes, and whales coated in oil surfacing for a gasp of air.
http://tinyurl.com/26kfj2c Reuters is reporting that methane levels in the Gulf have been found to be astonishingly high, as much as a million times the normal level.
In some parts the oxygen depletion has reached 30%.
http://tinyurl.com/2fkbnzr Petroleum World has published a short summary describing Deepwater Horizon as Well from Hell.
A large methane gas bubble has been discovered 15 to 20 mile across and tens of feet thick under the ocean floor.
A bubble this large if allowed to escape, has to potential to create an explosion like Mt. St. Helens, only under water.
http://tinyurl.com/3xy2ay3 People who are working to clean up the oil spill are reporting illness from the effects.
http://tinyurl.com/27y7eun This is especially troubling, knowing that almost all of the 1989 Exxon Valdez Cleanup Crew are now dead. There were 11,000 workers. An estimated 8000 have died since 1994.
http://tinyurl.com/23p63od BP has dumped 1.4 million gallons of Corexit 9500 in the Gulf. This could be the cause of the mysterious crop damage in the Gulf area.

http://tinyurl.com/26xl5se Here is an animated set of images from Geostationary Satellites covering the Gulf of Mexico. This is useful in watching in real time how the hurricanes are forming.
http://tinyurl.com/26a3xl2 Watch Kindra Arnesen express her outrage at the dog and pony show being presented by BP. You can feel the raw emotions in her voice.
This lady has more balls than our elected officials to convey the truth.
http://tinyurl.com/2v7fvf7 We are watching the slow destruction of the Gulf. We have set into motion the worst environmental disaster in mankind�s history.
It has been 70 days since Deepwater Horizon exploded. We put people behind bars for shoplifting a doughnut. Yet, not a single individual, either from BP, Transocean, Halliburton, or the Government or the MMS has been jailed or charged for this crime against humanity.
Where is the justice? Where is the accountability? If there is no consequence for such irresponsible action, then how do we guarantee a repetition will not occur?
