ouch. did not need that…
Read this, the Gulf region is in really big trouble! If you live there you need to consider leaving!

Sigh…Mother Nature is going to come at us with a vengeance for doing this stuff to her.
you got it kali…
major storm in vicinity? haven't mapped it yet http://www.tvballa.com/2012/11/gulf-mexico/east-coast-threatens-weather-weary-noreaster
Methane is my guess
yeah… makes sense. not a good thing.
Isn't methane is a colorless gas making it clear?
Could the product be from fracking, or maybe the two mixed together along with all the other stuff come out as a weird product?
My Dad once made the firehouse stew at home.
He did something to it, put too much of something in and it turned out horrible.
I think they put to much garbage in their big stew and now it also is turning out horrible.
Corexit, and a little of this and that?
Benzene too

bastards.
This doesn't look good:
http://www.haarpstatus.com/status.html
Is this site totally on the mark? HAARP is definitely an actor in much of what we are seeing, but I'm never sure of the interpretations that are posted on various web sites. If this map is accurate I'd better gather up my family and head for the Dakotas…
BP has fractured the entire sea floor and there is no way to stop the gushers, nor the seepers. MC 252 is not the only wellheads leaking. Over 27,000 wellheads have never been properly sealed! MC 292 is between two Salt Domes and was a drill site by BP. I wrote several articles about all of this, but one I currently wrote has very ominous portents. I may post it here as well, but for now, I'll hold my tongue since I am new to this site.
FreedomRox, please feel free to post your articles (one at a time) or a link to them. The map I linked to above shows a shortwave spike in Louisiana that appeared early this morning. Could this be referencing the wellhead that is now spewing "unknown product?" (Laughing sardonically as I type that. Reminds me of effing Donald Rumsfeld and his "known unknowns, etc.")
In addition to periodic blowouts, the underwater drilling sites worldwide have a history of constant leaking that the MSM never covers. These leaks have to be causing long term ill effects, but with a toxic menu of oil & gas pollution, nuclear & EMF radiation, agricultural chemicals, medications & fluoride in our drinking water, chemtrails and on and on, it's almost impossible to sort out what is causing the skyrocketing cancers, autism, mental breakdowns and immune system diseases.
TYVM amber. I wouldn't worry too much about a shortwave spike, but longwave is another thing entirely. It is absolute that this oil came from the Macondo.
The shortwave spike you allude to is most likely from the Gwen network, so watch for weather in the local area take a turn.
Wow, like a bomb with a thousand fuses.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. Mark, I may have some real serious questions for you considering your background, sir.
Massive Explosive Potential in Louisiana and Gulf of Mexico.
http://12160.info/profiles/blogs/original-content-massive-explosive-potential-in-louisana-and?xg_source=activity
Lots of info, so take it as long as you can. One thing to consider… Oxygen being forced by drilling will seep thru fractures in the surrounding sub-strata and throughout the caverns. Oxygen plus methane equals a truly dangerous situation.
damn

See post below on Gulf Blue Plague (Corexit) victims…very ill, and many are dying with no assistance for their conditions…
Numbers don't lie
(without people`s help!)
Well, it could explain all of the so-called "Fema Coffins", and relocation camps. Does anyone think that they know just what they are setting up, or just as precautions?
Feels like we are going to find out. There are so many perils and missteps in play here there seems a foregone conclusion is in play. How could things turn out differently?
I knew there was something fishy about the radioactive readings at the Bayou Corne sinkhole. Makes perfect sense. Spent fuel rods would easily go down a well casing into the salt domes under louisianna,Texas and under the gulf. There is documented proof thet the government has advocated for the use of salt domes as a good place to store radioactive waste. They currently use the New Mexico salt domes to do exactly that so whats to keep them from doing it in these salt domes. Today's photos of the sinkhole shows that this monster is out of control. I suggest that if you have relatives or live in Southern Louisianna that you get the hell out of there. Even it it doesn't blow to kingdom come it's definately highly contaminated beyond any possibility of ever getting cleaned up. Make sure you don't jump put of the pan into the fire and by that I mean stay clear of areas close to any nuke plants or reprocessing plants like Hanford washington,rocky flats colorado, and Savannah River site in South Carolina. Also stear clear of Simi Valley Calif(nuclear accident site) and Crescent oklahoma (old kerr mcghee plutonium processing plant). I live in Houston and am thinking of selling everything I own and moving to Costa Rica. Its going to get worse – who knows what the outcome of this nighmare will be. Read the link in FREEDOMROX posting!
Costa Rica sounds nice 😀
Yeah, getting out of Houston sounds nice to. I moved out of there years ago and feel much better, LOL.
FREEDOMROX is on to something with this Craton Breakup. Maybe that explains the quake swarms around Birmingham, Alabama and Kentucky/West Virginia border.
http://anf.ucsd.edu/recenteqs/
USGS doesn't show a lot of these.
Another good site,
http://www.ceri.memphis.edu/seismic/recenteqs/index.html
Thank you for the links. I included them as an alternate source in the article. So much cloak and dagger surrounding all of this, and getting more ominous all the time. I have a friend in Costa Rico… maybe it is time to pay him a visit, since the (S)Elections are done.
@TearsOjoy
"Yeah, getting out of Houston sounds nice to"
Sure it is 😀 My memory of Texas….tap water smelled like strong chlorine like pool water including on tap coca cola from restaurant… I don't know how you guys can be poisoned and live like that!?
On arrival in Costa Rica you will find everything slows down and rent is super cheap (a whole house for $100/mo is typical, though not like homes in US)… local gringo online newsletter shows higher prices, go straight to the people, find cheap rent easy.
For sure get out of the gulf, where ever you go, just go.
BP oil spill's health effects will be felt for generations, scientist warns
http://www.nola.com/news/gulf-oil-spill/index.ssf/2011/02/bp_oil_spills_health_effects_w.html
"…The blood tests were performed on people of varying ages, gender and exposure levels. All of the individuals tested displayed some physical symptoms typical of exposure to crude oil or Corexit, Subra said. Immediate symptoms include skin irritation, nausea, headaches and vomiting. Longer-term maladies can include liver and kidney damage, cardiac arrhythmia and chronic respiratory problems. Benzene also is a cancer-causing agent.
Test results consistently showed elevated levels of chemicals — among them benzene, ethylbenzene and Xylene — that are found in either crude, dispersant or both, she said. Results were similar on oysters and other Gulf seafood.
Among soil samples taken in four states, 60 percent showed dangerously elevated levels of petroleum hydrocarbons when compared with normal marine sediment screenings, Subra said."
Macondo…the gift that just keeps on giving.
if the well is still leaking then this article from bellona makes alot of sense.. we need a discussion about big buisness.. or a revolution..
reposting these 2..
BP Gulf disaster -Food chain damage likely on the way
Kristiansen said that the worst of the damage from the oil remains buried in such sub-sand deposits would likely be subsurface ecosystems.
“The damage that we don’t see could be far worse,” he said. “The subsurface ecosystem damage can damage the genetic make up of and productivity of these ecosystems.”
He said that the chemicals released by the initial spill accumulate upward in the food chain, and “reach levels above the threshold of what causes genetic damage in marine species, and may further cause cancer in seafood consuming humans.”
“If anyone is still accepting BPs assertions that this is not an environmental disaster any longer, this is an eye opener,” he added.

"it dont rain but it pours"
🙁
Thank you arclight, and I am well aware of these developments, but the article is very long as it is. Sometimes you sacrifice. I shouldn't have and will post it into the comments section which is now becoming the size of a novella. I may just write one after this. "What a long strange trip it's been."
A wellhead blows, and immediately the methane disaster crowd jumps on it like it's 100% proof positive. This is exactly what I'm talking about when I cite inductive reasoning. It says "unknown", which means that they haven't analyzed it yet. There is not enough info here to tie it to anything yet.
My article is well researched and is not advocating a doomsday scenario, but with knowledge comes the power to ask intelligent questions and get some equally intelligent answers, of which none have been provided at any of the most recent disasters. Ever get the truth about Macondo? No, we had to drag it out of their publications and emails after the fact, and after Matt Simmons lost his life warning us. It is now confirmed that the prior oil is from Macondo in September. It is not inductive reasoning that if the slicks from 2011 and 2012 are from Macondo, that a slick at Macondo is from Macondo. Do you even have a clue as to how many wellheads exist just on Mississippi Canyons 252 and 296? I do.
Sorry. Just talking on a forum. New here. Place is a little hateful if peeps don't want to "go there eh?" Damn.
No, I don't think so. I am new here as well, and you can find folks that are constantly fighting their 'Official" conditioning on every site on the web. I do not take anything as hateful. Just different strokes for different folks.
@krugthecaveman did you read the story about the mother whose kid has so many throat nodules they cannot count them? I will go anywhere you think you want to go if you come here bringing unnecessary nonsense, and not helpful data, to this board.
If you want to get kicks and giggles by "chatting" on forum about watching kids getting poisoned by BP leaks or them dying from radiation then go for it but don't expect people to have calm thoughts over such things.
@Dosdos you know the drill-if you don't like what is presented here find links of your own. Methane or no methane BP oil is flammable. Period.

Kalidances you are an idiot. I can chat and get my "kicks" here if I choose! I can also become educated about my world through news sources like this. Kiss my ass.
One day if you have children you will apologize. One day you are going to have to bury a loved one because you were on here fucking around instead of making sure your family was safe.
You are going to watch someone you love die.
Count on it bitch.
Learn and share, you'll fit in fine!
Scientists and their employers need to reverse direction and quit wrecking the planet.
Matt Simmons claimed if I remember correctly, that BP had accidently drilled into a hot volcano.
It was an offshoot magma chamber. If he is correct then we will see frozen methane releasing itself. Altho' natural gas is colorless, it is far from odorless. Need boots on boats out near Macondo, but would probably be shot by BP security.
@kali, I have attempted to stay away from the 'elephant in the room', because no matter how many times you try to explain to people the environmental catastrophe that will murder their children…I normally only face angry nay-sayers. It is a very sad and tragic situation in the Gulf. May prayers go out to them as well as the victims of New York and New Jersey now facing a Nor' Easter and plummeting temperatures this week.

Genetically modified organisms let loose on the world. Criminal. Utterly criminal. Corexit, a product made by the oil industry, for the oil industry. To sink oil because the penalties for spills are assessed on what's recovered.

Perhaps the millions of years of pressure at great depth has produced something beyond oil that releases more energy than oil products when burned. We have solved the energy problem. Drill Baby Drill!
