Look at what Key West is doing. Look on CBS evening news online and go to the June 21, 2010 evening news and see how that island is getting its boat owners ready to fight the oil spill themselves. Contact Gerry Metherne of Orange Beach, Alabama to make his oil skimmer cage. It collects a ton of oil in 2 hours! That’s more than those little booms can catch in 8 – 10 hours.

I am so devastated by what’s happening in the Gulf. My heart goes out to this gentleman. I fear that his story is just a permutation of what will someday be all of ours. The livelihoods and wild places we’ve always enjoyed destroyed by money, greed, power, and a dependency on oil.
This is an unspeakable tragedy.

Not to mention totally ridiculous the amount of people who “don’t realize how big it is”.
