disappointing, dependant, innocent wildlife.....


At work today I mentioned to co-workers, “how do these BP exec’s sleep at night”. I think the effort to get it under control has definitely been weak. I was less than impressed with the exec’s I have heard on the news.

When I see the pictures of the wildlife that is being affected by this, it just breaks your heart.


This has affected so many things, much more than we realize.

One of ladies I work with made a very good point. We have to share part of the blame. We do love to drive our car from point A to point B.

Our dependency on oil is quite sad. I am just as guilty as the next person.

The situation with BP has this in the forefront of my mind, not that it would make a big difference. What I would hope is that it would bring it to the forefront of the minds of people who can actually take steps towards changing this dependency we have on oil.

The quality of cars has gone down, yet the price has not.

They have so much computerization that the average mechanic no longer can fix his own car. You have to hook the car up to a computer system to find out what is wrong with it.

If a computer can run part of the car why can’t it make the car go with out the use of gas and oil that do nothing but pollute the environment.


There are so many technological advances in so many industries. Just think if the people who create all these bells and whistles that go off with each new model of cell phone were in charge of the car industry- I bet you we would not be dependent on the oil industry.


If only the car industry could move forward in the ways that computers and cell phones have.
