We need independent confirmation of these flows so Gulf communities can realistically assess the potential destruction.
Yes, I know the oil industry has good equipment but we BETTER have as good a ROV team in our military.
Why is our US Navy not using our best ROV team to independently assess the BP oil flow rate claims??

Dauphin
Island
and the Mobile area.


Forgotten
Gulf

A timeless coastal
place where



hundred year old island pines


give way to


towering
mother dunes



    of
    stunning sunsets


    towering
    thunder heads


    iridescent
    birds


    the
    years first Mardi Gras


    75yrs
    of the Fishing Rodeo


    Miles
    of gulf and sound beaches.


    and so
    much more.



Mobile
is a place lost in time.


Many of the lost niceties
are still remembered here

south city while it embraces the 21st century
