Thanks, BP.
I suspect the CNN blogger is right - the beaches there won't ever be the same again.
Fuck.

Well that did not take very long. From what I understand of the pending storm season we may just be getting started in what will happen to FL's beaches.

I'm concerned about hurricane season as well. How will clean-up after the storm go, I wonder? Will people be able to safely go in like normal, or will there be toxic chemicals (more than normal, anyway) to deal with?Originally Posted by Sluggo

There goes any chances we might have had to sell Florida to Paraguay at a premium.
Thanks, BP.

Will they rattle when I smack you over the head with them?

Ever is a long time. I'd say depending on whether they can get that shut off in the next month or 2, 15 to 20 years they should be back to "normal". Maybe more, maybe less depending on what advances in cleanup techniques are developed.
There is certainly some incentive to inventive people to come up with those now.
