Be sure to read the entire post here. I would like to hear from anyone who lives down and around the gulf to know if they have heard anything on this yet.

clipped from www.meetup.com SoCal Martial Law Alerts (SCMLA) has been in existence for a year and a half and this is our first MARTIAL LAW ALERT. We have withheld putting out information on the Gulf oil spill for a variety of reasons, but there is now enough evidence for us to put together a fairly clear picture of what really happened, what may result and to warn people who live in the area. If you live, or if you know people who live on, or within 200 miles of the Gulf Coast area, we recommend that they immediately relocate to at least 200 miles inland (i.e. the farther away, the better). If people living within this 200-mile zone do not relocate voluntarily (i.e. on their own initiative), it appears likely that a forced evacuation through a martial-law scenario may occur within the coming weeks and (possibly) months. Our country has been in a state of national emergency since September 11, 2001, which means that martial law (i.e. military rule) can be declared by the President at any time, for any reason

A Totally Safe And Completely Organic Way To Clean Up The Oil In The Gulf Of Mexico

clipped from howtohelpsavetheenvironment.com The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is rapidly becoming the worst environmental disaster in American history.  We are watching as an entire region is economically and environmentally destroyed in slow motion.  In fact, many are calling this Gulf of Mexico oil spill a "slow motion Katrina", but the truth is that if something is not done quickly this disaster will end up being far worse than Hurricane Katrina.  Once the oil slick gets into the wetlands along the Gulf Coast it is going to create a nightmare of unimaginable proportions. Well, yes there is, and it is also incredibly inexpensive. It is called hay. Yes, we are being totally serious. The video contains footage of CW Roberts employees demonstrating the use of hay to remove oil from water.  This same method can be used to clean up the oil in the Gulf of Mexico.  You have got to check this out.... So will those in charge of cleaning up the Gulf of Mexico embrace this idea? No, probably not.
