Let's not forget that in 1969 Matt Simmons was the financial wiz kid that put the funding together for Laddie Handelman's group to become Oceaneering. Since then Simmons group has become a major player in energy investment. So his motives to see this mess end may be biased.

Furthermore, the White House, BP, ADC, USCG and MMS isn't putting out all the info out to the general public.

The BP wellhead now dumping thousands of barrels of crude a day into the Gulf of Mexico is located in the Eglin Water Test Area near several munitions and explosives dumps — 19 of them, or at least 19 listings of such dumps.

The areas mentioned above are all within one degree of lat/long of the oil well that exploded April 20. They are identified in the doc**ent Navigational Chart 411, published by NOAA to aid marine navigation in the Gulf of Mexico.

Did BP know about this? Oh yeah, it's listed as section (c) in the Information To Lessees, Eastern Gulf of Mexico Sale 189, published by MMS.

(c) Unexploded Ordnance. The U.S. Air Force has released an indeterminable amount of unexploded ordnance throughout Eglin Water Test Areas. The exact location of the unexploded ordnance is unknown, and lessees are advised that all lease blocks included in this sale within these water test areas should be considered potentially hazardous to drilling and platform and pipeline placement.”
