Have you noticed that a large part of the oil slick in the Gulf is RED (as in the color of blood?)?

Update:

I don't expect it to cover 1/3 of the oceans.... but maybe it is a warning.

    Yes, noticed that probably about week 2. have you considered that a burning oil rig resembles a falling (burning) star?

    Edit: The fact of the matter is that oil, once a blessing that helped the USA to grow into the greatest superpower the world has ever known, is now a curse.

    Yeah now all it has to do is cover 1/3 of all the oceans. That would be all of the atlantic and indian oceans. That would take another 75 years...

    Did you know that oil comes in several different colors? The oil well on my family's place growing up had oil that was almost green in hue. Crude oil does not necessarily look like the quaker state oil in a bottle that has been through a refining process. Vaseline is a petroleum product, it is not black. Nor are most plastics.

    Ihave never really seen pictures of it but as u say it could very well be a answer or a warning .. After all mankind insists on eating unclean foods does it not ?? this will indeed put a hinderance on bottom feeders like shrimp lobsters etc that are not fit for humananity to eat.

    Those are the dispersants, mixed with the oil.

    And no, let's not go to blood running in the streets and rivers of blood, okay?

    Too much of a stretch....
