Take it as you wish, fact or fiction...

Thank you for listening and being aware.

If you read anything off of the internet, you are already aware that it may not be TRUE- Some is- some is NOT.

If ANY of this info on this page or My facebook page is INCORRECT, the links, the post- please call them out..They will be removed or corrected, OR
JUST DO RESEARCH and WITNESS it for yourself, somehow, and share that info with others.

I believe not everything I see, but mostly what my gut, my heart- leads me to. Instinct? Some just dont want to wake up, some are already in hysteria...

I just hope and pray that we as humans stay well- in body mind and spirit.

Seeing the info about the dead zones and the levels of poison in the water frightens me. I admit that it SCARES me as i am sure those aware can relate...

Love.

TOday before the rain I watched 2 green lizards hugging. Maybe they were mating, but It felt like they were hugging. It was a nice gift from nature seeing this. I want more of this to balance out what is going on. Thank you all..

the chemistry and the unknown unfolding...

Sulfuric Issues

"Organic Sulfonic Acid Salt" part of Corexit should act as a weak base not as a strong acid.
A stron synthetic plastc Kevlar can resist attacks from many different chemicals, though long exposure to strong acids or bases will degrade it over time. If gloves or plastics are degrading we need to examins the effects and factors see:

It seems possible that Sulfonic acids are a class of organic acids with the general formula R-S(=O)2-OH can lead to sulfuric acid as an end point.
See:1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanesulfonic_acid

It may be considered an intermediate compound between sulfuric acid (H2SO4), and methylsulfonylmethane ((CH3)2SO2), effectively replacing an -OH group with a -CH3 group at each step. This pattern can extend no further in either direction without breaking down the -SO2 group.

See 2. As a general starting point for natural sulfuric acid production
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_is_sulfuric_acid_formed_in_the_natural_environment

... oxides of sulphur are emitted. sulphur trioxide will dissolve in rainwater to form sulphuric acid. SO3 + H2O --> H2SO4. sulphur dioxide will dissolve in rainwater to form sulphurous acid (H2SO3), and is then oxidised to form sulphuric acid.

however....

Sulfonate SALTS

Anions with the general formula RSO2O− are called sulfonates. They are the conjugate bases of sulfonic acids with formula RSO2OH. As sulfonic acids tend to be strong acids, the corresponding sulfonates are weak bases. Due to the stability of sulfonate anions, the cations of sulfonate salts such as scandium triflate have application as Lewis acids.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
See 3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sulfide

Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide occur in crude petroleum, but natural gas can contain up to 90%.[3] Volcanoes and some hot springs (as well as cold springs) emit some H2S, where it probably arises via the hydrolysis of sulfide minerals, i.e. MS + H2O → MO + H2S.

Fwd: Treachery In The Gulf

Treachery In The Gulf
By Robbi Skye Campbell
6-29-10

What has happened in the Gulf of Mexico was not by accident. It was most likely a design to support an agenda. What that agenda is we do not know exactly but I will try to connect the dots. We may soon know the true extent of its nature by the "solutions" our government imposes on the people in the Gulf area.

There are some major problems:

The Obama administration allowed BP to drill at an unstable site (highly over pressured) in 5,000 feet of water;

BP CEO Tony Hayward dumped his BP stock 2 months before the spill;

The well was kicking since they drilled into the production zone, so the drilling fluid or mud was underbalanced (mud weight not quite heavy enough for the upward pressure of the gas);

Goldman Sachs dumped 44% of BP stock and went short on Transocean stock the day before the spill;

The drilling crew knew that the annular blowout preventer was damaged and BP company man Kazula did not order it repaired;

BP company man Kazula was a greenhorn on the Deepwater Horizon (he was inexperienced);

The well was cased, cemented and had two cement abandonment plugs in place, so how could the well be kicking (trying to blow out)?;

BP company man Kazula sent away the Schlumberger team (supposed to do the cement bond log to check Halliburton's cement job on the casing);

Despite this the BP company man made the decision to change the mud over to seawater (seawater is 40% lighter than the drilling mud). This is not logical;

Shouting match between the rig superintendent and the company man. Superintendent felt that the order to change over to seawater was irrational and suicidal;

During the changeover of the mud to seawater is when the blowout naturally occurred;

President Obama stood by but did not take action for at least three weeks after the spill;

BP and the White House allowed the spill to continue;

The White House allowed BP to spray the highly toxic chemical, Corexit 9500, which is considered to be four to ten times more toxic than the oil itself. EPA told BP not to use Corexit 9500 and BP ignored the federal agency. Corexit is being sprayed at nighttime on coastal residences by the CIA-front, Evergreen Air (which reportedly also sprays chemtrails);

Negligible cleanup measures on the shores and at sea;

Barack Obama sent SWAT teams to production platforms and drilling rigs;

Obama sent the Army and National Guard into the Gulf States for what reason?

Suppression of investigative reporting of the spill;

BP arrested people taking pictures of the area;

BP is allowed to reap the benefit of gathering oil rather than stopping the spill;

Interests and livelihood of the residents suppressed and not considered in decisions;

President Obama is using the spill to get the "Cap and Trade" bill passed;

Twenty-two countries have offered their experience in spill control and cleanup but neither our government nor BP has accepted their offers;

BP and Obama have declined to use non-toxic microbes as a clean-up measure;

BP company man Kazula invoked the Fifth Amendment under congressional questioning of his orders.

Where are the environmental groups? The Santa Barbara spill in 1969 was from an offshore drilling rig in the Santa Barbara Channel. It was a blowout on Union Oil's platform A; over ten days it was estimated that 80,000 to 100,000 barrels of crude oil spilled into the channel and onto the beaches from Goleta to Rincon and all four Channel Islands. The oil spill prompted a congressional moratorium in 1981 on new offshore oil leasing with exceptions of the Gulf of Mexico and parts of offshore Alaska that remained in effect until 2008 when Congress did not renew it.

This was the coming out of environmental groups. At the same time Friends of the Earth was heavily supported by BP, ARCO, and EXXON in its litigation against those companies to prevent the completion of the Alaska Pipeline until the price of oil was raised by the Ayatollah in 1978. Friends of the Earth then withdrew is lawsuit and the pipeline was allowed to begin transporting much more valuable oil.

In 1989 we saw the Exxon Valdez spill which was the largest oil spill at 10.8 million gallons (250,000 barrels) when it hit the Prince William Sound's Bligh Reef. Others estimated a far greater amount, closer to 30 million gallons. It was considered to be one of the most devastating environmental disasters. The tanker's Rayas sonar was not turned on. It was broken and disabled for longer than one year and was considered too expensive to repair or replace. The environmental groups were all over them, and the media piled on.

The Exxon Valdez crew was criticized for its slow response. The environmental groups were powerful and their voices were heard. In response to this spill the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) was passed by Congress. It prohibited after 22 MAR 1989 any vessel that has caused a spill of greater than one million US gallons in any marine area from operating in the Prince William Sound. Even though the tanker involved in the spill was double-hulled, this spill resulted in all tankers ordered to be double-hulled. To this day, the spill affects the lives of the people living in the Prince William Sound area. The cleanup has not been successful; more than 26,000 gals of oil remain on the shoreline and the marine life has not recovered. Only 10% of the oil was recovered.

Even though the environmental groups may have had some effect on the spill it was the community that took the full brunt of the accident. The Chugach Alaska Corporation had to file Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Losses included recreational sports, fisheries, reduced tourism and of something economists call "existence value," which is the value to the public of a pristine Prince William Sound. The economy of Cordova, Alaska was adversely affected with damage to the herring and salmon stock. Several residents and the mayor committed suicide.

Let's take a look at what happened to the cleanup crew of the Exxon Valdez. Workers stood in oil foam for 18 hours per day. The boats steered through a hydrocarbon haze. The workers came from the area fisherman and sportsmen suddenly jobless. They were hired by Exxon. They were treated for headaches, nausea, chemical burns, breathing problems. Many or all of them were never the same after working the summer for Exxon. Most of the workers died young due to lung disease (asthma, emphysema), liver, pancreatic and spleen problems. Workers went in 100% healthy and came out sick. Well and vibrant, they all became sick after a summer of hard work in Prince William Sound. There were thousands of workers affected by headaches, cancer, rashes, kidney and liver disease all the result of massive chemical exposure to the dispersants, solvents and crude oil mix. We may never know how many people were affected by the Exxon Valdez spill because Exxon and their cleanup company, Velco Inc., denied government investigators the medical records.

Russia is another country that has had uncontrollable blowouts. They have had five cratered blowouts. They found that drilling a relief well that intersects the wild well and then placing and detonating a nuclear device (which slid the formation across the wild well bore, choking it off) were successful solutions.

In 1963 the Russians had a horrible blowout that lasted three years spewing twelve million cubic meters of flaming gas each day. Albert Vasiliev (nuclear physicist and gas well firefighter) said, "We were acting like surgeons in last resort cases, but it worked." The blowout sounded like 100 jet planes all at once. A nuclear blast choked it off. This method was found to be effective and they used it on similar cases. Vyacheslav Klishin (nuclear physicist, gas well firefighter) said, "One needs to tie up the well where the leak is. There are only two ways: 1. [A relief well to intersect the wild well, injecting mud and cement into the bore]; 2. A nuclear explosion." The Russians and other countries are obviously alarmed by the Gulf catastrophe and have offered their experience and expertise in wild well control, but Barack Obama and BP have ignored their offers. We can only infer from this that our government and BP are not going to control the well. There is an agenda, but what is it?

What will happen if the well continues to release 125,000 barrels of oil and at least 9,000 PSI hydrogen sulfide, benzene and methylene chloride gases each day? Benzene is the aromatic hydrocarbon component of crude oil, which is highly toxic and carcinogenic to boot. Acceptable levels are 0 to 4 parts per billion. In Florida, Alabama and Louisiana they have measured 3,000 ppb on shore! Hydrogen sulfide is allowable at 5 to 10 parts per billion. In the above states, H2S has been measured at up to 1,200 ppb. The allowable limit of methylene chloride is 61 parts per billion. The same states have found levels as high as 3,000 to 3,400 ppd!

The oil flow in the Gulf is equivalent to the Exxon Valdez every two days. It will follow the currents of the Gulf of Mexico to the shores of Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Bahamas and the Caribbean. Russian scientists have said that, once in the Gulf Stream, it will drastically affect the fishing industry globally. There are millions of families that have made their livelihoods on fishing, shrimping and crabbing. The restaurant, hotel and sports businesses based on tourism will be affected. The chemicals have evaporated into the atmosphere and have condensed, falling on the plant life, farms and the entire environment surrounding the Gulf of Mexico causing corrosive lesions on plants and killing the birds. It is now raining chemicals in Louisiana.

There may be more that it has affected so far but this is what we have seen on the Internet and YouTube. The currents move around the peninsula of Florida and along the East Coast. This will directly affect more coastal regions in a similar fashion as what we are seeing in the Gulf. We are nearing the hurricane season which will drive the toxic mixture inland. The toxic combination of oil, methane and Corexit will continue to have detrimental effects on our environment and humanity. It is a carcinogen. The hydrocarbon fumes and Corexit are causing symptoms which will manifest in diseases that will afflict plants, animals and humans.

People along the coastal regions will become sick and die prematurely.

* * *

It is ironic that the moral and ethical guidelines for the United Nations' Wildlands Project are based on the philosophy of "Deep Ecology." Our government and BP are creating a famine by letting the blowout continue in its present state. As mentioned above, the EPA objected to the use of Corexit 9500 but Barack Obama did not step in to stop its use. Greenpeace has a boat in the Gulf of Mexico performing research. Research is not the first step that is needed in this life-changing disaster. This is the only NGO environmental group that I have seen in the mainstream media. They have not spoken out on the marine life that is being killed daily, nor have they made any statements on the use of the cancerous chemical Corexit. There is a report from the Sea Turtle Restoration Project that BP has stopped the rescue of Kemp's Ridleys that were trapped in the oil. These sea turtles are being burned with the oil. Burning the oil releases toxic fumes into the atmosphere.

We seem to be witnessing the collapse of the environmental organizations, none of which has an expected strident position regarding the worst ecological disaster that the modern world has ever known. Hasn't it been their self-appointed responsibility to speak out? Are the environmental organizations taking money from the big polluters?

Every step during this disaster appears to be controlled by an unprecedented amount of greed. Even greed does not figure because so much natural wealth is being destroyed. What is really going on here?

Barack Obama spoke to the nation for the first time last week with confident assurances that the Gulf coast would be restored to its original condition eventually. There was no method mentioned. He has made four photo ops trips to the Gulf region, conferring mainly with BP and local leaders. He did not speak to the people who reside in the area. The last one I saw was a silent video showing Obama with a BP cleanup crew relaxing at a picnic table. A local resident commented, "The cleanup crew was there for appearances only; their garbage bags were empty. When Obama left, they got on a bus and left, too."

Why do we have a media blackout on a catastrophe that will affect the whole world? BP has hired the CIA-front company, Wackenhut, to patrol the shoreline and prevent reporters, residents and visitors from witnessing, describing and recording the damage. Private thugs are forcing the public off public beaches.

In 1966, The Report from Iron Mountain asked the question: How do you duplicate the total control over the population in peacetime that you have during wartime? Written by Leonard Lewin and immediately branded a satire by government spokesmen, it nevertheless had the ring of truth. We have since seen all of its extreme programs brought to life by the US government. The most notable example is the 1992 Agenda for the 21st Century. Agenda 21 is a United Nations program but it was spearheaded and directly sponsored by President George H.W. Bush at the Rio Conference. President Bush promised the attendees that Americans would one day pledge their allegiance to the United Nations as he made Agenda 21 de facto US policy.

Once in office, one of the first things President Clinton did by executive order was establish the Presidents Council for Sustainable Development. All aspects of life were covered, though no one in Congress complained or demanded hearings or any sort of debate. Seventeen years later we see Agenda 21 being quietly enforced in federal, state and local laws and regulations. Agenda 21 is the framework for world government, imposed on us by our own town and city councils, our own county supervisors. But it's not called "Agenda 21" by the planners. It's called "Sustainable Development."

"Sustainable Development" is a code word for world government. The term "world government" is a euphemism for merciless dictatorship. The excuses are the issues of environmental protection, preservation of water and anti-pollution. For example, most of America will be designated as "wildlands" and will be off-limits to Americans. After a severe reduction of the population, survivors will be highly concentrated into "Smart Growth" cities, stacked and packed into high-rise housing projects.

By reducing the population to the numbers found around the Dark Ages (five hundred million), government control is thought by the planners to be manageable. To get down to five hundred million people from our present population of six billion people will require a ninety-two percent reduction. The reliable methods of population reduction we saw in the last century Capitalist world wars and Communism only achieved reductions in the hundreds of millions. Famine and genocide in Africa were not sufficiently destructive. Agenda 21 calls for the slaughter of five and a half billion people.

AIDS has affected its target populations here and in Africa but the Bird Flu, Swine Flu, Ebola, Lyme disease, BSE (mad cow disease) have not taken the numbers wanted. These are all, in my opinion, government-created weapons. Government vaccine programs have not been successful in creating disease and mortality in the numbers needed. The right combination, however, of disease and famine could accomplish the goal.

The oil flow, blown inland by storms, will create water shortages by poisoning fresh water sources. People who have been subsistence-living will no longer have ways to live as they had been doing for generations. Farmers will lose production due to chemical rain, thus creating food shortages and famine across America and possibly Mexico and South America. People living on seafood will have the most difficulty and may die off quickly. Oil residue has already been seen in seafood in restaurants and grocery stores. More economic alternative food sources will be sought as the price of seafood skyrockets.

Genetically-altered food sources created by Monsanto will cause disease and early death. Already the use of Monsanto "suicide seeds" in America has adversely affected the honey bees. Our honey bee population has been drastically reduced. Scientists have found that the genetically-altered DNA has affected bee nervous systems, causing a die off, which is now called "colony collapse disorder." Without honey bees, pollination ceases and this will be the end of a natural way of life.

There will be migrations to urban areas as the coastal people lose everything that made their lives worth living. The "Smart Growth" collectivization of stacking and packing will begin. A single family home with a yard will be something of the past and longed for. Actually the packing of people into small areas will increase the spread of diseases and violence. Two of the tenets of Deep Ecology philosophy in the Wildlands Project are: The human population must be reduced; western civilization must radically change its present economic, technological and ideological structures. Independent entrepreneurs will be things of the past.

To support the Wildlands Project we find the American Lands Alliance group and, at the state level, the creation of the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana (CRCL), which has turned into a land-grab with the support of the US Army Corps of Engineers and the Coastal Restoration and Protection Authority (CRPA). Here is how it works (from "The Louisiana Land-Grab" by Zack Walley):

"The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers has moved to usurp traditional private property protections in Louisiana's Atchafalaya Basin. In a highly questionable action the USACE has forced conservation easements on the properties of an untold number of homeowners, farmers, timber producers and sportsmen in a 338,000 acre area (equaling an area 10 miles wide and 53 miles long).

In an attempt to avoid the Fifth Amendment's prohibition against land takings, the USACE attorney did not refer to these as conservation easements but called them 'Flowage Development Control and Environmental Protection Easements' (FLOWAGE) and used some really 'new math' to adjust the 'fair-market value' of the property down from $1,000 per acre to $125."

Every day that BP and our government allow the oil to flow and the use of Corexit, more of the earth will be poisoned. The land won't be worth a dollar and a quarter, never mind a hundred and a quarter.

The marine life that does survive will be contaminated. Recovery of the areas affected is highly unlikely especially when looking at our past record in the Exxon Valdez spill. The use of cancer-causing Corexit has made this disaster many times more toxic than just oil alone.

News reporter Kerry Kennedy says the people in the Gulf are experiencing symptoms of nausea, headaches and burning eyes. Didn't BP learn anything from Exxon, or did they learn too much? No one is encouraged to wear respirators and rubber gloves because BP is worried about causing a state of hysteria, i.e., a state of awareness. The doctors do not know exactly how to treat the patients coming in since they don't know what chemicals BP is using. Only band aids and aspirin are provided to the workers in the Gulf by BP's company doctors. All I can say is that a majority of the Valdez workers were dead ten years later. The White House has not responded appropriately so BP as a corporation has taken control of the area without the consent of the people.

Looking at the big picture does put a new light on who is expendable. White House chief of staff Rahm Emmanuel has said, "Never let a crisis go to waste." And Obama says we are addicted to oil. (This from a man whose largest campaign contributor was BP) We would not have to be using so much oil if so many inventors of alternative energy and free energy had not been frightened off or killed.

Obama's first televised address to the nation was right out of the UN's Sustainable Development handbook, the comprehensive plan to regulate our behavior via the federal, state and local levels of government, primarily the local level. This scheme has been enhanced until recently by the term "global warming," which was necessarily modified to "global climate change," since we now appear to be in a cooling period. Fortunately, the last climate change conference in Copenhagen failed to produce a new climate change treaty. At Copenhagen, some of the American conservation groups demanded a course of action that will lead to environmental disaster faster. BP is heavily tied to eco-groups like Conservation International and Nature Conservancy. Real science often is thrown out the window to accommodate the programs of Big Oil and Big Coal. This will only be tackled when the green lobbyists in the US stop taking cash from Big Oil and Big Coal.

City Paper pointed out that BP spent "hundreds of millions of dollars" to "transform its image from that of a dirty old oil company into 'Beyond Petroleum' a company so environmentally friendly it had transcended oil drilling (and spilling) for happy, sunny and clean technologies such as wind and solar."

They also noted that the environmental groups "trumpeted their ties to corporations, arguing that these partnerships lead to better corporate environmental policies and less damage to the planet."

That's exactly how the relationship between BP and Conservation International was framed by ABC's "Nightline" back in 2002".

The main objectives are to end national sovereignty, abolition of private property, the "restructuring" of the family unit, increasing restrictions on mobility and individual opportunity. Barack Obama's way to do this is with something he calls "Cap and Trade."

I must admit, for the longest time I did not know what "Cap and Trade" meant. Nothing in those three words suggests anything to do with ecology but "Cap and Trade" is an environmentally-based scam, an artificial marketplace designed to reduce pollution by paying people who reduce pollution with money from polluters. "Cap" refers to limits, or caps, on emissions. So, we would have an emissions trading system in which total emissions are limited, or capped. Permits would be allocated or auctioned up to the set cap on emissions and a market would allow polluting members who are emitting less than their quotas to sell their excess permits to polluters who need to buy "credits" to meet their caps. Which is all as totally phony as it sounds, and as totally phony as "man-made global warming." The globe is warmed by the sun, or not, if it puts out less heat. Paying money or being paid has nothing to do with pollution or "greenhouse gasses."

What "Cap and Trade" does is to create more restrictions and controls on people.

Some are asking, is there a hidden agenda behind all the foot dragging to the clean-up and to stopping the spill? At my local library, which covers Santa Barbara County, I asked the reference librarian to help me find anything on the Agenda for the 21st Century. What I found was surprising. There were no books, magazines or videos on this subject. The librarian found two brief articles and one review article not on the subject of Agenda 21 but on one aspect of it, the Wildlands Project. The buzz words "Sustainable Development" were used. Nowhere in the public library could one try to inform himself on the scope of Agenda 21. I suspect that this is the way it is throughout America. Agenda 21 is literally a hidden agenda.

The policymakers have created innocent-sounding catch phrases to capture the hearts and minds of our educators and their students. It will be the students who are the spring board to making Agenda 21 possible through grassroots groups that will carry over to our city councils, town councils and county boards where the policies are made. All these "Sustainable Development" policies and regulations have stolen our soul for life for the communal good. These policies are destroying the soul of life. This is what we are giving up every time we accept these policies. The first point in the moral and ethical guidelines for the Wildlands Project is: All life (human and non-human) has equal value (a minnow is as valuable as man). What we are giving away is what sets man apart from all other animals, our souls.

This is the most devastating disaster that we have known. It will affect millions of people in the Gulf States, the Eastern Coast and everywhere the Gulf Stream goes. Agenda 21 is not only for America it is international as a United Nations policy for the New World Order. But while we still have some tattered shreds of our Bill of Rights left, each of us who has an ounce of soul left needs to find out for himself and herself the full extent of Agenda 21 and how it will impact on your family's life.

Agenda 21 has been creeping through each town and city council for 17 years. The first thing to do is to take a good look at what is happening to the people who are living in the Gulf States and etch into our brains what will happen to your family in the near future. Our response to this must be to seize control of our local institutions, our town and city councils and county boards of supervisors and force the rejection of any and all programs, regulations and policies that conform to the United Nations' Agenda for the 21st Century. Gulf Coast residents must demand non-toxic forms of clean-up such as bioremediation, i.e., oil-eating microbes.

Sulfuric acid is at work melting the plastic and bottles and trash that have been drifting in the Gulf. The chemical reaction of methane and oil is not strong enough to melt a Pepsi bottle. (i did some lookin') BP’s Corexit is separating the sulfur from the oil, and has created large plumes of sulfuric acid in the ocean. tobyus sanchezo

Sulfer + Heat + conversion(corexit) + water = H2SO4

high concentrations of atomized sulphur from Corexit hitting the oil is released, it bonds with molecurs in the saltwater, and creates sulfuric acid
Add corexit...
It's been diffused through 5000ft of seawater, and the biproducts are????

If it melts plastic, it's either very potent paint thinner

Or sulfuric acid

or a little of both

but it could depend on how deep the dispersants and and how deep the bottles are on the seafloor

Sulphuric acid breaking down plastic? yes + ???chemicals

Approval for Corexit was rescinded in Britain a decade ago because laboratory tests found them harmful to sea life that inhabits rocky shores.

Toxic FEMA Trailers Get New Life Thanks to BP Oil Spill

Date Published: Thursday, July 1st, 2010

Formaldehyde-laced travel trailers, the same trailers that made life even more miserable for survivors of hurricanes Katrina and Rita, have shown up along the Gulf Coast again. This time, they are being used to house people working to clean up the BP oil spill.

Today was enough. Tonight I sit on this humid night and record these thoughts... I cannot even begin to express the sadness I feel, much less the anger. I rented a chopper today, the black eagle. My curiousity and insanity led me to do such a gutsy expensive "answer" to the questions lingering in my mind. Mike lifted us off at 4 pm. I tossed the idea up and down for nearly a week and it was either do or dont. I did.

  There are people in the water, picking up shells, hanging out like nothing is wrong...barefeet...while dozers scrape the oil and sand and bag it. The giants of the oil companies have OUR American Citizens doing this work, exposing US to this cancer. Truly third world-ish in MY country. Photo by Candice Alexander Copyright 2010 Pensacola Beach FL.
   I witnessed many oil slicks above the ground in my private heli...dolphins, manta rays, sunken boats and sharks- close to the shore. My restless soul believed what I did not want to...I loved this gulf like never before, crashin on the shore....dont run and hide...a little hide away...the coldest warmest waters ever...

   hammers beating hard , Some other air to breathe ,That we might break these molds ,And free our restless souls ,Start to believe ,That we can rise above ,Our pettiness and love , Like we ain't loved before, free on this earth, As the surf that rolls , And crashes on the shore. And hey now don't run and hide, Your little heart away , If it's gone ,We'll sure never find it , Pining for lost innocence... David Gray

Clean up crews lined the beaches of Pensacola. White tents, blue tents, men and women in yellow vests and boots...plastic squares draped on the sand...black on white.

Dozers and cranes and port-o-lets and parking lots full of bags of oil.
The crews immediately were on this mission of cleaning up what is yet to come. Hurry so no one can see what has happened it what it looked like and felt like.

Black on white...an aerial birds eye view.
A storms a brewing in this soup and people swim with their flesh in this mess.

Considering your SKIN is the largest organ: I think the beaches should have a sign in. That way we can record and document the side/health effects of the people swimming in it with their orfices. DISSOLVED OIL IS BAD. Just because you cant see it does NOT mean it doesnt exist...kinda like a VIRUS..

toward the horizon

2010-06-26T11:38:00.001-07:00

As far as my eyes can see toward the horizon- I make out dots. I purchased a telescope lens yesterday-60x's magnification. Pretty amazing. At first I thought there was a huge hotel or skyrise across the Gulf...it is a huge barge of some sort..maybe a research vessel. I dont really know.. Also in the horizon are tugboats with long beds. People swim in the dissolved oil.

A cold, i did touch the oil. i read that one drip on a bird egg could destroy its life. Exposed. I have not felt up to par for the last couple of days. Everyone around me seems fine though. Eye crust out of the ordinary unlike i know. Notes.

We think we understand the questions, sure-but what about the flesh that thrives. If this movement of enlightenment IS happening, then we are destroying the vessels that move the tides in our veins and our blood.

I always knew as a child that I could not play where my father worked. But now- they give me where he worked right in my backyards, my beach... To better jumble in my mind...oil on my soles, literally.

Today I saw an interesting film by Alex Jones. He mentioned how FEMA has teamed up with boy and girl scouts of America. WoW, really FEMA...

The change in this country will not be by Democrats or Republicans- but by the American People. Thoughts, Amsterdam and trade...

In America our rights are indeed violated, ripped away, contortioned...even though we fly our flag with freedom.

I am thinking that if the American people stood up and actually admitted how they feel and remember the foundations of what we stand for- we would realize how much we are already One. We have divided ourselves up because we are so busy reproducing because Darwin said so. We are working our American hands to the bones to pay for our oversized everything. We need to come together and meet the next generation on the compass.

Why are we not learning from our mistakes???? I guess us Homosapiens think we are invisible or something. I know, I know...we all grow our own food and dont need our little iphones. We cut down trees as quick as we print on paper...who cares. The bees are devastated because their forest is cut down and we kill the bees, one of the most important species on this planet for pollination. We are arrogant and we like our dollar bills and we want them to be bigger and bigger....Suck on this:

The cleanup efforts or EXXON VALDEZ and natural processes, particularly in the winter, cleaned the oil out of the top 2-3 inches, where oxygen and water can flow," the council said, "but did little to affect the large patches of oil farther below the surface."

Exxon Valdez Spill: http://arcticcircle.uconn.edu/SEEJ/Alaska/miller2.htm

More marine mammals and birds died than in any other oil spill.   Some populations, like harbor seal, were already declining so the spill added insult to injury.  Only 2 of 26 species studied by the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council have recovered (bald eagle and river otter).[12]  "The Exxon Valdez spill killed nearly ten times as many birds as any other U.S. or European oil spill," said seabird expert Dr. Michael Fry.  As many as half a million birds died.   Over 30,000 carcasses of  90 species of birds were plucked from the beaches, but this is only a fraction of the actual mortality.[13]  Harm to birds from chronic effects and decreased reproduction continues to the present.

     population control via our own poeple.our own gov.?

“But it doesn’t take a disaster to destroy wilderness.  The hundreds of miles of pipelines, roads, docks, causeways, airstrips, the thousands of personnel, the constant roar of trucks, planes, and the drilling equipment itself destroy the wilderness even if it is carried on with immaculate care….
And it is also common to feel anger.  Anger over broken promises.  Anger over lies.  Anger over greed, arrogance, and ineptitude. Anger that so few can destroy so much.  Anger can be constructive, but only if we use its energy to undertake constructive tasks.  Let us apply ourselves to protect our wild places, our last wild places, from ever being victims of another disaster.

Corexit--Corrects it--Dispersant Type 2.

2010-06-24T22:02:00.000-07:00

http://www.oilspillsolutions.org/dispersant.htm

It is probably all the same...or did they just simply change the name? Toxic is toxic, right?

They dump it in YOUR water everyday, a million and a half gallons yes sir everyday. Here is the proof. They dont lie to us as they pollute life as we know it: deepwater operations daily list of chemicals used

It is in the sand. On the shore. If the oil has arrived- so has the poison they allow us to drink and swim in... I am no scientist, or marine biologist...but I am a witness.

It's fighting and it will win...it moves in out but the evidence NEVER leaves. It just moves. Dissolves and moves around our plantet.

The dispersants responsible for the condition of the oil are made up of a stew of chemicals, about one-third of which are proprietary — which means that even BP does not know exactly what it's spraying. But it's the surfactants — a lipoprotein used in soaps that reduces the surface tension of liquids — that are the most active ingredient, reducing the surface tension of a liquid and breaking the oil from a slick into droplets. The finer the breakdown is, the easier it becomes for both big creatures like bluefin tuna or swordfish and tiny creatures like krill or shrimp to ingest the oil and the surfactants themselves.(See pictures of the Gulf oil spill.)

To sum it up-- Day one at the beach (Panama City Beach, FL.) seemed pretty normal, i guess. Four days later- this is a different place, a different beach...different tides, a different nasal drip. The day I arrived so did the beast. It has moved on for a few days, destroying other creatures in it's path.

I read somewhere that the purpose of green algae/ phytoplankton which lives close to the surface to absorb the sun---is to make or use anothers CARBON. Signs of phytonplankton, or algae is a sign of sudden change in the environment. Well, its not as obvious today,and neither are those nematodes or krill, or clear egg sacks, or the washed ashore jellyfish, crab carcass, and insect bodies.Or the oil.

WIKIPEDIA: Phytoplankton account for half of allphotosynthetic activity on Earth.^[2] Thus phytoplankton are responsible for much of the oxygen present in the Earth's atmosphere – half of the total amount produced by all plant life.^[3] Their cumulative energy fixation in carbon compounds (primary production) is the basis for the vast majority of oceanic and also many freshwater food webs (chemosynthesis is a notable exception). As a side note, one of the more remarkable food chains in the ocean – remarkable because of the small number of links – is that of phytoplankton feeding krill (a type of shrimp) feeding baleen whales.

Most krill species display large daily vertical migrations, thus providing food for predators near the surface at night and in deeper waters during the day.

The krill showed up during the day...along with the oil. Interesting when I think of the connections. Sad, really.

The forecast for the oil is coming back to the west. I guess the current or the weather or something is moving it. So i've heard. Not to mention the Hurricane Alex and Celia right now, alive and well. Here is a tad bit of information I thought I would share... The source is : Oceanworld
Marine Food Web

Plants and animals must have organic carbon to survive. Organic carbon has high-energy chemical bonds which are broken to provide metabolic energy. For example, humans eat organic carbon in the form of green beans and chicken, but we couldn't survive if we only had diamonds to eat. Diamonds are made from carbon, but it is the wrong kind - inorganic carbon. Just like humans, plants and animals in the ocean require organic carbon.

How do they get it? There are only two ways. They either produce their own or make use of organic carbon produced by others. Species that make their own organic carbon are called "primary producers". They are the base of the marine food web because all other species depend on their productivity either directly or indirectly to survive. In most parts of the ocean, primary producers are marine plants, typically algae. These are the phytoplankton (phyto = plant; plankton = floating). They live in the sunlit portions of the ocean and use energy from the sun to convert inorganic carbon into organic carbon.

Just by being a bit more aware of the things I thought I might have known...you know, take my focus off of the birds, the dolphins and the burned alive turtles- I witnessed something giant happening right before my eyes, in my nasal cavities...in my world. There has been an evident change in the algae/phytoplankton since I arrived here a few days ago. Oil or not.

June 23, 2010 Day 4. In the meantime I will wait on the rain and collect the rain water, whatever that may be...I will collect rainwater. Oil rain- so Ive heard.... ? Tropical Cyclone "Celia" brews... There have been storms here everyday...ripping umbrellas and dark skies with bright sun and warm water. Silverfish and alive and well many things. Live near Panama City Beach, Florida.

June 23. Afternoon. It has been overcast here most of the day, the sun peeks in and out. What is the temperature of the water?
With so many questions and numbers being thrown around, and planes chopping this coast from left to rigtht...I decided to do something. I called and was transfered to nearly 20 different phone numbers regarding more information about the dispersant-where-how much- when, etc...

Here is a timeline of the Deepwater Horizon Response
Basically- this is what they are telling us that they are doing. Its oil and the gov. so who knows...

   and here is a timeline of who knows what and an outrageous chain of unanswered questions by folks who answer our government phones...This IS how it went--
In nearly the order -here are the numbers I called to find out more information in a matter of 30 minutes .
   I asked if there was more information regarding how much dispersant was released, and how I could find out this information: The last person I spoke to gave me info on the DPH Responde site...
727-596-8666 Us Coast Guard Operations transferred me to St. Petersburg 727-824-7531 who transferred me to a lady who mentioned that she didnt mean to be abrupt with no information at all to 727-824-7638. From there I was told to call the National Response Center at 1 800 424 8802 to the Clearwater Beach Florida Pollution Control Deptartment at 727-824-7676 to the Officer of the Day general information for the base at 727-824-7638 again to yet another general info line where they wanted my name and number but I refused at 727-824-7670. Then I was transferred to a command center, West Coast Guard at 727-824-7506 and the Federal Office in Tampa at 813-228-2191. I was then told to call the Clearwater Beach FL pollution control at 727-824-7696. Just then the person told me to call the Horizon Response Center who is in charge in NOLA. That joint info center is 985-902-5231 but WAIT that number is no longer working so a message tells you to call the Unified Command Center at 713-323-1670 or 713-323-1671. To volunteer the number is 1-866-448-5816. I was then told to call the US Coast Guart Station at 727-535-1437. But still no info but maybe call St. Petersburg office at 727-502-8770.
   The last call I made was a somewhat helpful to what I already knew...at 727-820-3700. Basically she read me what was on the www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com site.
Well what do you know!! Public information...right.

This site gives the daily aircraft used, the amount of oil recovered, skimmed and dispersants used.
They have updated (I think) info here http://www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com/go/doc/2931/690083/

For example, today the dispersant gallons were: D ISPERSANTS: Surface dispersant used: more than 972,000 gallons

Subsea dispersant used: more than 492,000 gallons

Total dispersant used: more than 1,464,000 gallons

I stayed awake until 5:30 this morning in this nice chair facing the Gulf... Two pelicans fly above me along the coast just then... I wonder if it is the same 2 I continue to see?

Live feed stations need to be set up ALL along these coastal waters, or are they arlready here? We feed on their channels and they can stop them any minute, or take them.

I have been wondering the execution of this piece in my mind,...this creation. Numbers.Ones and Zeros and many many numbers. What are the meaning of these numbers? I should go to an airport and hitch a ride with an instructor...

Jeremy ? Prophecy
What was that bit of information i saw last night in my researches...when the numbers reach 430? or an increase or decrease by 2%. Interesting.

Oil rain. Oil falling from the sky?
Last night the planet was high and bright.

I wonder how my garden grows back home.

At night the water is warm. Tomorrow binoculars and thermometers.

June 21-23, 2010. Day 2-3...if you have read this far, you must have some curiosity or the same questions as I, doubts, truths and answers --or you're reporting back. So many questions that I dont even think They have pondered upon. Thinking, remembering. In the three days I have lived here on this coast... I bury my soul in these words. Forgive them for they know not what they do. Who is leading us and its obvious that the safety team is oh so relaxed. I feel blinded by a light that I have fallen into a trance...

**corrects.it-on** 8 or so helicopters have flown above me daily, not duplicating themselves...one huge Coast Guard plane- There has been much more air traffice than this. Maybe its normal. I am here, witnessing. A species of few on this earth. Will they take care of .\with an open underside gate, and a private plane twice.
   Men ride the beach in gators and fluorescent vests with duct taped waterproof boots. They are hired privately by the beaches. They are hired privately by the beaches with the red x's.

Possibly more.

  The question of the day is "What was the purpose of that Coast Guard plane"? Where were they going and what are they carrying/releasing. Why.? What is the mission.? It is my duty to know these answers as it is yours. They fly their flag so high but do not remember how precious life is. Can they be discharged if refusing to morally agree on a mission?   Who is this McChrystal Guy? Npr today reported nearly as many American troops have committed suicide this year as have been killed in combat in Afghanistan.
   The sunburn on my lower legs, i begin to wonder. My feet seemed buried, not to mention. I did fall asleep with the umbrella allowing only them to be exposed by the sun. The water. The air.

Were they releasing Corexit today, and if so-?? This is a label found via www. I am not sure if it is legit or not.

This is a war and we are the people. If I have questions, so do the rest of the neighbors and the community. Where are the voices. The shouts and the echoes. ?
I remember on this night, I felt like a child that day, or a soldier with a helmet. Time moved entirely slow because I am taken back to that moment in my mind. But like in a movie that moment he lays in a field, hopeless to find your commander, your chief and your family. Who are they and what are the values of our lives they have allowed us to eat from this soup? Do they play on our team and what are the soldiers preparing to do.? that first day -just out of the blue, lost. Expressed.

Scrabble tonight. "Cete"- a group of badgers.

The flag was green yesterday. Today yellow tells us the sea is not so calm. Are there many other colors because I hope so.
Because this life is changing. They burn and tell us they are cleaning up...
This evening we hunted for crabs in a child's net. Babies. Feeding fish and those crab like sand flea creatures. Clams rising and falling to and from the sand. Waters warm and no air traffic. In the horizon above the water there is a light in the shape of grids. The moon shines above the Gulf of Mexico and it seems as though the eternal glow is a cycle for the the waves communicate.
Tents.

They feed the Sea like they prescribe the nation. Tests and experiments knowing not the results because of the lack of testing. http://www.saunderslawyers.com/practice-areas/harmful-drugs/zicam-lawsuit/zicam-side-effects.html

stats counter
In these rose colored glasses I am the waves turning over. Through this river tolls an algae blue green against the white eastern sand. Panama, Florida. June 19-present... This life I sit on is sand soft as skin are smaller specimens than those that exist on the coast of Southern Louisiana- shells, snails and divine proportions.

   It moved, it lived, uncomfortable and distressed- it puts us to the test. It is coming. The small children play with shovels in the water and were excited when i showed them the "Specimen Jars". They wonder what is this treasure that awaits us. It is not a shell, a clam or any thing beautiflul to the eye; insect carcass', krill, jellyfish and OIL.
   Just then a man walking stopped directly in front of us, moved the sand with his toe. Naturally I thought he kicked over a tiny shell. No. They kept walking, searching the coast.

   Fathers Day. Even my father mentinoned how the substance is not near Southern Louisiana. For years, he said- the current has taken everything that way but not today. With these thoughts, I hold a specimen in my hand with a heavy uncertain heart.

This time it will not be seashells. That serenity it was where the white met the blue, the horizon met the air, and now we are ALL caught somewhere in the middle... We stand only from where we come from, where we are and unknowing as to what will come. So much to write.

Collecting samples in these tiny beautiful vials the universe dropped in my lap via angel who watches my home. The small children are now waist deep. I blinked and suddenly what I call the "big ones" started coming right before my eyes. I look closer. Not only do i notice a coast lined with a graveyard of insects and flip flopping tiny krill, and baby jellyfish taking one last breath. As far as my eyes can focus atop of the water floats tiny medium and half dollar size pancakes of an orangish-red ochre color. Almost like red iron oxide but diluted. I stand now and immediately I can witness my heart pumping harder. The blood in my veins rushing, gushing- this substance that awaits us.
There are several occurances each minute that I do not understand. A man said "it" arrived yesterday.

Looking toward the sun, I see what looks like crystals glistening toward the rays. Some are obviously tiny jellyfish, most are tiny crystal looking globs. Maybe eggs, nematodes? Living or unliving? I do not know nor can i locate any skimmers. Life goes on here with the oil, for right now anyways.

I spoke to my father today on his day- "Believe only half of what you hear, believe everything you see." One would only think, naturally, that the invetments in these huge beach front backyards would be hold skimming nets and concerned citizens. An army plane chops the air above me. There are miles of this coast and not one more that exists beyond that. I am deeply grateful and taken away with a sadness I must leave here. I hope these words are spoken and heard among several listening ears and heard.

The waves rolled in faster, a foot or so larger. The moon rests due Southwest facing my pen. Media blackout in my mind. A plane without banners travels between the moon and myself. Private.

I knew I was headed directly where those red X's were on the map. I believe there to be more than 3 x's, rather ONE. I look toward the sun and notice only water.
Vacation. I sit, I stand. My feet rest in the water. I collect. These jars seem less compared to the work I have to do. I want answers. If these jellyfish and krill are dying, what about the phyto plankton and the following food chain. What lies deep in the ocean are lies. Living creatures we know not about because of their complexity and depth and how they feed. Whole Foods has pulled krill oil supplements from its shelves with out any prior notice 270 North American and UK stores. http://www.worldfishingtoday.com/news/default.asp?nyId=5500

Where are the comfortable homeowners with their 8 toilets flushing and gushing this coast. The next handful of days will be rather interesting. This coast will change by the minute, so will the tides. Astronaut diapers with the help of the moon.

Night. The thunder rolls among the tides 150 feet from me. I just noticed that the writing and these words are all starting to blend into one another. The debris in your mouth is the details on the coasts. Listening and where does the rain put the gasses in the air? The moment is creeping up when the ocean calls me. Laces and long pants- a work to do. Today was a real experience of many emotions. I look forward to researching jellyfish and phyto plankton. I am dying to know more. There are not enough live reporters who share the truth. Complication communication far away. transformation takes my place. The new- something easy to find. The truth- something you find in yourself. Some tell me to "relax". I do. I am. I am a vessell, what which is a channell.

At the entrancw of these waters, I have noticed less spam in my inbox. The storm rolls on and grasshoppers and crickets are among me. I am curious with so many questions. Head lamp, trot. To do something, anything-whatever-to acutally DO the action of moving energy-takes much organized efforts. I know these thoughts random. Beef burger tonight. I must absorb nature around me, embracing every moment, knowing that it will all take full care of itself, replenish, die, cycle, deep and spiralling.

Rereading. Chills. I will remember remembering these exact moments when I grinned a smile, gave my bones a chill, know these words I speak, unbiast of the one who recorded them. Tomorrow is yet another day of witnessing everything changing and nothing at all. The vessels I fill need to be capped. Shut off. Preserved, studied, recorded and rewritten.

I find it amazing those manifestations of a heart, and witness them happening because of the very words I speak- that which moves through my hands. This is an unedited raw story. I do not care that I care so much. I have surrendered for quite some time now. A child again. They know why they had to leave to go get in the cleaner pool.

I am curious to talk about the individuals who call themselves community in this moment of crisis-sooner-to-be-than-later. Absent. The very ones who founded a place on false ideas and greed based on traditional bullshit we think is correct- Gone. Owners but sellouts. I want to blame everyone but no one can take it personal ok. I want to hear more about how the big boys do something what we ALL morally agree with.

Garlic cannot fix this one. No garden potions either. Nearly 2 months ago today. I find usual, not microscopic evidence of what is a chain of events happening. for a minute there, I had second thoughts about being a newly first time homeowner. An hour of conversation passes between these words with an elder. He leaves the balcony on the German Luger USPS delivery. I notice a house sitting along the coast. Dark. The elder asks me if it looks out of the ordinary, or do I also notice that the place has no evidence of electricity. Beyond this structure the beach activity is overall quiet. Still actually. Absent.

Day 2. 11:30 Am. The smell in the air is familiar to what is captured in the vile jars. Where my teeth meet my gums aches. So I heard there was a clean up crew this morning. Good. Seaweed and random but not many tar pancakes I see. The tide has pulled them back out, therefore the water is clean today. ? The beach to my left and to my right has a few hundred or so in both directions. There are birds diving beak first into the water and above me the air traffic seems very busy. 1 army plane. 2 helicopters, and that same private plane from yesterday. I am sure they patrol the slick.

Day 3. From what I can remember- these beaches had clear water. What I am seeing now is a greenish algae phytoplankton color along the entire coast. I am not sure this is normal even though I heard it was. I notice the seagulls eat the bug carcass along the coast, which explains why I am not seeing many today, along with the tide pulling things out again. Seagulls scavenge, but what is the cause of the bugs? The complexity of the ocean food web is amazing. There are many variables involved therefore it is impossible to assess the impact of the Deepwater Horizon Oil spill. We have obviously seen the efforts to remediate the effects of the spill by focusing on the larger animal species. The long term survival of these and other species will depend on the water quality and sunlight and nutrients for the phytoplankton. I sit here with sunburned feet because my umbrella exposes them to the sun. No tar pancakes are visible today. Besides the very tiny 5 or so in a 10x 10 ft area... I guess since its out of sight and out of mind, it does not exist at all. The Air Force and a huge red Coast Gurad plane chopping above me. My blood is a river. Deep breath. One salty tide dies.

tar pancake arrived an hour ago

Pancackes. The size ranges from pencil point dimension to half dollar. Not balls. Red ochre pancakes.
I'm writing several chapters here. Where are the skimming boats??????????????

Tiny jellyfish the size of half toothpicks but clear are jumping along this coast. A line of bugs with wings are sporadic also. I'm collecting ALL specimens.

The evidence of the food chain breaking up washing up. I am a vessel and I am witnessing this.

Looks like tiny crystals along the shore. Tiny.

Jellyfish for sure and possibly some clear goo.

Along with tar. Of course.

Panama City, Fl

Right now.
