from CNN:
U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Bill Colclough tells CNN that all 13 workers involved in the rig explosion are accounted for, but one person is injured.

Coast Choppers are on the way to the site 80 miles south of Vermilion Bay.

So what ..three homes blow up in Cleveland in the past two months ... we all still live in homes and use natural gas and people still stealing copper piping.

Shit happens ...

The Obama Administration has it under control with new Obama Inspectors (not on the take), Safety regulation (written by environmental nut jobs), more restrictions (to limit the production and hinder safety) and up scale program designed to over seeing drilling operation via the Obama Administration and Government Officials taking money for Lobbyist …. Seems this Administration has another failure add to the list…

This is news. There was a post that was moderated by someone earlier in the day (and therefore can't be seen by non-mods) that was very political, which is why (I'd guess) Fly4Fun posted what he posted.

This is news. A hidden post, however, was political. I think fly was just trying to keep this from turning political.
