no excuse for this

A government panel on Thursday essentially doubled its estimate of how much oil has been spewing from the out-of-control BP well, with the new calculation suggesting that an amount equivalent to the Exxon Valdez disaster could be flowing into the Gulf of Mexico every 8 to 10 days.

The new estimate is 25,000 to 30,000 barrels of oil a day. That range, still preliminary, is far above the previous estimate of 12,000 to 19,000 barrels a day.

Vivre Sa Vie

I forget that I'm responsible, but I am.
I told you escape is a pipe dream.
After all, everything is beautiful.
You only have to take an interest in things, see their beauty.
It's true.
After all, things are just what they are.
A face is a face.
Plates are plates.
Men are men.
And life....is life.
