Florida may as well branch out into new forms of food...


NEW ORLEANS — A thick, 22-mile plume of oil discovered by researchers
off the BP spill site was nearing an underwater canyon, where it could
poison the foodchain for sealife in the waters off Florida.

The discovery by researchers on the University of South Florida
College of Marine Science's Weatherbird II vessel is the second
significant undersea plume reported since the Deepwater Horizon
exploded on April 20. The plume is more than 6 miles wide and its
presence was reported Thursday.


That's all BS. No such oil plumes have been found.
And the marshes that have been affected by oil total 30-40 acres.
Much ado about nothing.
Reminds me of the furor over Cabbage Patch dolls.
Talk, all talk. Get a life.
Me, Frogwatch, Wayne, MMC, and Tim are the only sane people who come
here. Because we boat.
The others don't talk boating, or are busy replacing starters.
Went out this weekend. No starter problems. Didn't forget the transom
plug. Didn't run out of gas. Got on plane easily, and had no trim issues.
Caught 2 +3 pound bass and a small gator.
Cleaned them all, deep-fried some gator. Bass dinner tonight.
Now that's real boating talk. Sorry to offend y'all.
