Yeah, great.

The good news is most people are back to work here, the bad news is the environmental damage is hidden / dispersed and will be haunting us for at least a decade.

I certainly can't prove anything, but I have been VERY sick 2 times after eating gulf shrimp, and I have never been sick after eating shrimp before.
I have not been out on the water in some time, but I keep getting reports that there are still boats out spraying corexit on oil slicks. I certainly wish I could prove either of the above.
Tourism is down by 1/2 in New Orleans, a tourist related shop that my family is involved with was forced to close (was profitable every month pre oil spill, lost money every month after oil spill until it went broke), we are in the BP claims process now.

Here is a pic of my favorite sign that I snapped on the same day that I was packing up above mentioned shop while watching flaming BMW's on CNN. (BTW: I did eat shrimp here and did not get sick).
