1. It makes me sick that there's so much else going on that this mystery oil
is all but being ignored, as far as I can tell. Thanks for posting.

3. The suspected well of origin for this leak is the Matterhorn Mc243
(per this earlier article: http://oilspillaction.com/breaking-news-100-mile-long-oil-slick-spotted-off-louisiana-coast)

Info I found regarding this: The suspected well of origin for this leak is the Matterhorn Mc243 owned by Total E&P USA (I belive this is a division of FINA Oil)
Here is the rig and info citation: http://www.louisianafotos.com/html/matterhorn/content/mc243rigp1020509_large.html

4. I wasn't aware that a new oil leak was suspected.
Is this the same oil slick that the Coast Guard is talking about here?

I've been distracted.

6. That's the same one. The Coast Guard says its sediment, but people want it tested for sure. nt
