   Move the Spill
  http://www.beowulfe.com/oil/What fun it moves the spill over your hometown, which of course gives you a better perspective of how big it really is.    Looks like it's at least a 4+ hour drive across.   
  Fun?! The frigging thing is about the size of my country!   ;  Yeah, we're kinda a little fucked, ya know?   ;  I loved the attempts to cover it with a frickin' pot. And I love how the blame got narrowed down to a flat battery. Oli is so 20th century - I can't believe we haven't gotten over it yet.   ;  I've heard that a glob 22 miles x 6 miles x 3300 feet is bearing down on Mobile Bay. Spill Baby Spill! You Betcha!;  That thing is really fucking huge. I can't even imagine what all the people making their lives off the sea down there must go through right now. Especially after Katrina and friends. This time, you can't just rebuild and forget. That stuff is going to stay for a while.I really hope the government will hold BP liable for all direct and indirect damages. But considering that BP probably has more power over the government than the other way round, I do have some doubts on that point.   ;  Shit. The spill will reach me in the next few hours!The region where I live is almost completely ravaged.
