Pretty crazy how it's pretty much the same thing that has happened before. No big surprise, though as people are easy to forget and big companies are bound to take advantage of that.

What is worse is this isn't just happening in the Gulf. There are leaks much worse in the Niger Delta due to oil companies being too cheap to fix rusty pipes.

No one in the west would have ever heard about it either if not for this Gulf spill and it's been going on for 50 years..

btw this is from Exxon, Mobil, Shell and of course BP, so I wonder if all those people boycotting BP will add the rest to the list..
