    Bp fine

    BP hit with huge new fine. How much of that do you think we will ever see here in the state?

    Fines up to $18 billion I heard, and just as I thought, they'll go to the court of appeals.

    I am probably too old to live long enough to see the case settled.

    Correction: No ruling yet on the fine amount, only a ruling that they were grossly negligent.
    Next ruling will be the amount of oil released.
    Then the judge will rule on the amount of the fine.

    As soon as some of that money trickles down to me, I'll buy a brand new saddle and bridle for my favorite saddle rabbit.
