What If He's Right? (Kunstler)

[CanonRay]

Just when America was celebrating the provisional end of BP's Macondo oil blowout, and getting back to important issues like Kim Kardashian's body-suit collection, along comes Matthew Simmons with a rather strange and alarming outcry on doings in the Gulf of Mexico that contradicts the mood of renewed festivity, as well as just about every shred of reportage from any media outlet, mainstream or otherwise.

Scary stuff...if he's right.

1. discreditable doomer stuff

I'm as concerned as anybody about the spill and the effects, but it's not helpful to create fictional apocalypse stories.

2. And it is also not wise to dismiss all possibilities.

Especially when dealing with something we know little about....the nature of methane and oil at such great depths
Methane hydrates is a very complicated subject as I found out by doing a little research on them.

3. Agreed, especially since BP and the government lied about this from the beginning...

and the MSM went right along.
