Gulf Oil Spill - The Oil has Miraculously Disappeared!

According to the Federal Government, 75 percent of the estimated 172 million gallons of oil spewed into the Gulf of Mexico by the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster has disappeared!

"It was captured. It was skimmed. It was burned. It was contained. Mother Nature did her part," announced White House energy advisor Carol Browner, appearing on NBC's "Today" Show.

I guess this means "no harm, no foul," right? Everything is once again hunky dory and we can all forget it ever happened as we continue to take ever more damaging chances with the life sustaining systems of the only world we have to inhabit.
