Default O/T: "Drill Baby Drill"

Yes, but as long as blame is being affixed based on BP (or whoever)
ignoring ALL possible contingencies, it's worthwhile to point out that
not ALL scenarios can be settled in advance.

Eventually, blame will be parceled out. Until then, it's imprudent to
criticize BP, the rig owner, the construction company, or any of the
makers of the thousands of pieces of equipment on the rig for the
mess. It's even more ridiculous to impute motives, such as cutting
safety corners to protect profits.


BP as the owner/lessee of the rig and as owner/lessee of the fieldis
responsible for a clean harvest. ANything not clean is their
responsibility to clean up, or pay for the damages. They have acknowledged
that. Hopefully the lawyesr won't get too rich off of this. Maybe the
judges can be activist enough to declare 1/3 of proceeds as usury.

I am still hoping!
