2. There'll be plenty of ghosts to remind us of the past.
Seriously - didn't I just read a post here that said that BP will still have access to this well and may reopen sometime in the future?

If not Deep Water Horizon than what about the other shoddy deep water wells already in place? Remember that's a HUGE oil and gas reservoir under there that's begging to be set free.

It's gonna happen again....

3. I'm afraid you are right what with BP having a policy of skirting regulations and all.

7. I'm sure the destitute fishermen and the guys who died in the explosion are overjoyed to hear.
