In twenty years, when the cancer cluster become too big to shovel under the rug, you'll be retired and sipping peas through a straw at the old folks home.

I never said the the Gulf would be extinct. I said that it will radically altered by it's ability to support the life it was once able to. I really don't think an ultimate 100% recovery is relevant to this discussion, as we are also facing many other horrendous environmental collapses at the moment.

Let me know how many more weeks it allows the fishermen to stay solvent (Pardon the pun) until the fisheries collapse. You going to fund his childs college fund and help with his mortgage or job training program?

Stop being so simplistic Nadine.. You are showing your naievete, and personally, I think you insult the intelligence of most awake DU'er when you try and foist this simplistic point of view on us.
