I haven't weighed in on the BP Oil Spill issue because it's so overwhelmingly enormous but I will tell you that the first thing I asked after it happened was: "What does BP stand for?" Walter told me, British Petroleum. Is that bad?
I was all eye-rolly when the US media made a big deal over the BP CEO saying that he cares about the "small people." I knew he meant the regular people or you know the victims or whatever but of course our idiot brigade had to come out and made something out of nothing.
I am sad that the accident occurred and that people died and now the environmental problem exists but I'm hopeful we can learn something from this. When I say "we", I mean the entire world. :)
