If true, this is NOT good news for ANYone in the Gulf States area ...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://beforeitsnews.com/news/87/973/California_Notified_of_Gulf_Evacuation_Plans.html Gulf state emergency preparedness agencies confirm mass evacuation plans Wayne Madsen Report – June 28, 2010 A well-placed source in California told WMR that the California Emergency Management Agency (CEMA) has been briefed by its counterpart agencies in the Gulf coast states that there are plans to conduct a mass evacuation of millions of Gulf coast residents due to the catastrophic environmental and public health effects of the BP oil disaster. CEMA officials have been briefed on the planned evacuations by counterparts in the Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness, the Alabama Emergency Management Agency, the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, and the Florida Division of Emergency Management. The Gulf states’ emergency planners stressed to their California counterparts that they are dealing with a disaster of unprecedented proportions and that contingency plans are being constantly updated and revised on ways to deal with the transformation of the Gulf of Mexico into a deadly “toxic soup” of oil and Corexit 9500 oil dispersants and the atmosphere into a dangerous mixture of hydrocarbon gases. CEMA was briefed on the impending mass evacuation since California would be expected to absorb a large number of evacuees from the Gulf states. CEMA officials did not say how the state of California, which is virtually bankrupt, would pay for the influx of hundreds of thousands and perhaps greater numbers of evacuees from the Gulf coastal region. |

That just makes it difficult - it doesn't make it impossible.
Besides, these are RED states - they didn't vote for 'The UN' ... he could care less where they live. |

Let's look at just ONE possible scenario that can result from the spill meeting up with a hurricane:
The oil suspended in water is picked up by the hurricane and distributed widely over several states. The hurricane dissipates, the water evaporates, and what's left behind ... ? The world's largest MATCH. It will NOT take much to ignite such a fuel-rich environment. If this becomes a reality, then the Dresden firestorm will look like the candle on a child's birthday cake by comparison. And this doesn't even begin to take into account the elevated levels of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) already in the air - like benzene ... This is NOT a disaster that is capable of being 'remedied' by the Federal Government OR BP ... Their choices as to HOW to respond are rapidly slipping away from them. Once they understand the scope of the disaster and the scope of the POSSIBLE disaster that could result from the release of the methane hydrates from the Gulf floor (say 'tsunami'), they have no option other than evacuation. Well, they do, but I doubt they want to be compared to the SS guards at Bergen-Belsen or Dachau ... |
