1. Hmmm...there was coverage of this a few days ago here at DU

A company claimed responsibility for it. I think it was a leak from a system not currently in use (could be wrong about that part) so this isn't really a mystery unless this is yet another spill.

5. I missed any report of any company owning responsibility

the report i happen to see here and there, was an image of what appeared to be a massive spill, i think the caption read 100 mile long spill, no one claiming responsibility, and no media reporting on it.. so for me, this announcement happens to be news! :thumbsup:

6. If I run across the link I'll message you with it

Posts run so fast and furious here that it's easy to not see something. I thought it was interesting to see it posted as a mystery when DU has already posted an article talking about someone who claimed responsibility. We're often ahead of the MSM here. :)

7. ditto

it's Tom Brokaw who doesn't

My mother brought this idea up although don't see how , think its more the quake. but that maybe the tsunami knocked the stuff off the floor where it was sitting with corexit.

"when we and the rest of the media have moved on to the next 'big story'!"
