Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Mobilizes Wildlife Rescue Teams
The Gulf of Mexico oil spill mobilizes wildlife rescue teams as the world is witnessing the world’s largest oil spill grow unabated. 5,000 barrels (210,000 gallons or 955,000 liters) a day of crude oil is flowing from deepwater well off Louisiana that was ruptured last week. There are many irate oilmen pointing the finger at serial safety culprit BP, who operated the well.

The Baton (pt 1 of 3)
Dear Mr Craven, Hi, I hope this note finds you well, I just finished watching our "Baton - Pt1 Video", and please rest assured I plan to do everything I can to help persuade others to buy your new book What's the worst that could happen?
I am touched by all the people you have reached by your messaged, and saddened by the toll it has taken on you and your family, and in truth, I feel partially responsible.
A friend sent me your video (the orginal one not uploaded by you - some guy johnq5) a while back. I think at the time it had about 100,000 views. I found the video so interesting that I added it to my site, and to a service you may be famililar with (www.stumbleupon.com). Only I embeded your video on my blog (http://blog.bwebcentral.com/626)
Since that time your video continues to be the most popular video that my site recieves. So much, in fact, that on occasions it has brought down my webserver and I have had to make several adjustments to handle the load.
Anyway, at the time, I had no idea this single video would spawn into so much work for you, and drive your passion to educate and inform others about the global warming debate and what people can do. I greatly admire you unique use of skills as a teacher and your unique style to bring this information to the forefront of people's minds.
So while the news of your resignation maybe saddening, as well as the toll this has had on your family, please rest assured that you have made a difference for many people and will continue to do so for many years to come.
Sincerely, Brad D. http://www.bwebcentral.com
