"Officials had estimated about 42,000 gallons of oil a day was leaking into the Gulf from the blown-out well drilled by the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. That would be closer to 210,000 gallons a day with the new estimates. Eleven workers are missing and presumed dead and more than 100 escaped the blast, the cause of which has not been determined."
"The cost of the disaster continues to rise and could easily top $1 billion" Just who do you think is going to pay for all this. Not the oil company. We are!
