Are Sick Fish and Eyeless Shrimp the Result of the Oil Spill?
http://news.yahoo.com/scientists-fis...074951853.html
The comments show that people do not trust BP. They do not trust gulf fishermen. And they do not trust us that things are normal.
The comments sorted by top comments really show what people think about us and our fishery down here. It is a pretty interesting insight to how people outside the oil spill area think.

Re: Are Sick Fish and Eyeless Shrimp the Result of the Oil Spill?
AP is running with a story recently released by AlJazeera (yes, THAT AlJazeera :
They don't say who "the scientists" are, but I can tell you who they are not...
NONE out of THOUSANDS of red snapper Dr Bob Shipp and other DISL folks have handled have had ANY lesions.
Ya gotta luv their mixing this latest 'sky is falling' article with those from two years ago at the height of the spill.
Why don't they mix two year old sports stories like that? :wall:
Many of the (over 1100) comments are hilarious though.
(RETIRED) mostly.

[size=12pt]That’s kinda like all the crap from Obama about how his great ideas and programs or going to help our country. Lots of talk and no positives in three and ½ years of lip service.
Yeah, I know, off topic.
But Wow, I feel better now!
