Out of the Blue

[Sep 22, 2010, 11:53 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Today is the first day of fall in these parts, just barely, as the equinox hits at 11:09 local time tonight. It's been quite a summer around here, with repeated heat waves, a drought, and more electrical storms than you can shake a lighting rod at. Because of this, the area has exhibited an autumnal appearance for quite some time now, with brown leaves on the ground after baking off the trees in the heat.

and what is your scientific analysis on the possible dangers of Corexit, if any? or is it just the same as dumping 2 million gallons of water into the ocean - i.e. no effect?

Nah, it probably sucks balls. But that is not the point, nor did I say they were doing no harm to the environment. I was merely pointing out that PAHs are not as harmful as they are proposed to be. It is a fact of nature that your body chemistry makes many things more harmful, sorry, we are not perfect creatures. But there are ways to overcome it, like drinking beer! heh
