In other news, deceptive and pointlessly alarmist headlines reach new lows.
It's a fan-driven skimmer boat. It's moving under power, ie the engine is running. It's just someone gone to the location to have a look. Don't even know if it's an official visit or just some random person sightseeing (which you'd expect people to want to do.)
So how is this worth even mentioning?

Minimizing this catastrophe doesn't help anything.

The point is that there is a boat operating on what used to be a grass access road. It now appears the grass is just floating on top of the water/slurry. This was news to me, if it's not to you, don't read it.

I was wondering the same thing. In fact I have sometimes wondered if this site is just a data mining site to see how people react to certain aspects of stories, since the admin(s) tend to post a video or radio show, then continue to post segments of it as new threads over the course of a day or two. The conversations in the comments are peoples reactions to pointed aspects of each story rather than a general discussion about the entire story. Just my conspiratorial way of thinking
Either that, or it's just a way to maintain hits to the site? who knows… but I agree that this was a completely pointless post.

I wish you were right but to many things are coinciding like the methane BP oil in the gulf and the sea bed rising and cracks on the ocean floor. Also all the tremors in Bayou Corne but I hope it's not what some scientists think it may be pretty dark.

During the first days of the Fukushima meltdown it was here in enenews that I learn truth that usually took 2 weeks to 1 month or more to be writen in MSM sites.
Yes here partial reporting is inversely proportional to what Main Stream Media does.
So when MSM starts reporting thinks straight I believe enenews reporting will also tend to the middle and reporting will be the same in both sites, regarding nuclear and oil disasters at least.

bmurr,
Everything is a filter.

bmurr, Are you saying that these events aren't extremely important events? Or are you saying that you think we shouldn't have the information?
If you don't want the information, please go to another site. INHO this is an extremely important website, providing a public service to the planet.
You can always put up your own website with whatever format you choose.

I'm not saying either of the two things. I saw the boat driving around in what used to be a forest or road in the video the first time it was posted. It was something that stuck out to me. I agree that it should be noted. I just simply shared a thought I had regarding this site. I don't know the admin of Enenews, so I don't know what the deal is here. I have been coming to this site numerous times a day since I discovered it just after the Fukushima ordeal, and have considered it a valuable resource for keeping up to date on stories that I would otherwise not be informed about. So keep up the good work Enenews, but understand why people who use their heads might have wondered why this needed to pointed out in a separate thread, as it is suggestive that it is important "news" that we should be aware of and reacting to.

Yes you can see the skimmer boat on the last video about 35 seconds in.

A facilitator is someone who helps a group of people understand their common objectives and assists them to plan to achieve them without taking a particular position in the discussion. Some facilitator tools will try to assist the group in achieving a consensus on any disagreements that preexist or emerge in the meeting so that it has a strong basis for future action.

How did all these geniuses manage to gather on one thread? So what youtuber is making these videos? Oh yeah, it's me. And they're posted to vimeo, not youtube.

Thank you Admin for your tireless work. I don't comment much right now, as I'm currently back to "direct action" rather than "typing" mode – but I still read every article you post and am thankful for every bit of information you and the awesome enenewsers provide!!

This remains a unique and important information resource website. You put much light on the dark corners of our shared humanity. Much learning and teaching happens here and reaches around the planet. There are many other positive aspects one can add to my list. You could have stopped at the first point and it would have been enough.
Thank you for your daily efforts for truth.

My first thought on all of the "comments" was that someone or something is trying the old "Divide & Conquer" trick.
Plant the seed of doubt, Get us to argue amongst ourselves, then sit back and watch the fun. I'm not giving these people ANYTHING! I appreciate ENENEWS! It's the first place I come to in the morning w/ my coffee.
Keep up the great work, Admin!

Why? This is a great site. If you have your doubts, do your own research or leave.

ENEnews is penned by a headless suit afaic.

hmm, I think you are talking about yourself. The usual response by anyone supporting or part of the MIC. Deflect from your own deficiencies by saying that's what's wrong with your opponent. Didn't work for Romney in the first debate, who also said how much he, Romney, likes "clean" coal. Obama rightfully ignored him.

making a website and filling it with content others have put together and calling it your own is pretty lame.

Greetings people. I don't have any particular horse in this race that seems to be going in the comments above mine, here. Just thought I'd lay out a couple of thoughts.
1. Common sense dictates that one not waste one's time hanging out at a Web site that one doesn't like or appreciate. There's much better things one could be doing with one's time than chipping away at another's efforts; maybe go try doing something POSITIVE out there in the REAL world, make some kind of fricking difference. Meh armchair quarterbacks.
2. To the best of my recollection — and don't quote me on this as I'm going by potentially faulty memory — this site is run by the same person(s) who run the Florida Oil Spill site — http://www.floridaoilspilllaw.com/
Hope this helps.

I for one commend ENENEWS with out this information Blog system we would all be in the dark as to world matters and the people here try to understand something that is bigger than all men and women. Thank the Admin, with out no one of this would even be told

You can see updates about the sink hole here. I find it curious that today's post said that it had not increased in size when simply looking at the video does show a lot more water. Previous discussion here has questioned how much water saturation there was before this happened, though, so water there does not mean necessarily that the hole has opened up underneath it. But compare pictures from earlier videos, it certainly seems bigger to me.

@Terrahertz, bmrr, and Hmmm: WHO do you believe is "taking the credit?" We are all Enenews here! Speaking of the actual news… I hate to see anyone get this close to this toxic mess, and I highly doubt anyone is "sightseeing". Sadly, it probably isn't anyone who's actually responsible. Last night I watched the Jesse Ventura video referenced here- I wish Dick Cheney was in that little boat.

I read the articles and links here several times daily,but seldom comment . I find the boat important .
Thanks administration and all enenewsers!!
keep on with this very important effort for our one tiny blue sphere,our mother earth …

So then, enlarge the boat. Do you see anyone in it? Because I'd love to see someone in it. Maybe I'm just not seeing it right, and I admit pixilation may be obscuring a person…but considering the scale a person would have to be, I don't see a person when super enlarging. I see a control panel and a steering mechanism.. Also, I have watched and rematches the motion of the boat…it looks a whole lot more like "drift" than it does the forward motion of a fan boat. I'm not trying to challenge anyone, I'm honestly asking.

The propwash appears to ripple the water strongly at the left of the image (stern of the boat) about 6 seconds into the vid.
