    I was rather amused. The faster we run out of usable oil, the better.

    Great news, but the damage is done. Remember the Exxon Valdez spill, it was so bad people up til recently referred to it as one of the worst environmental catastrophes in history.

    Now its time to drain BP's accounts to cover all the costs and damage done.
