About the citizens of the LA-MS Gulf Coast ......

[Stinky The Clown]

I am judging/extrapolating/assuming from the various stories I am hearing about how they're reacting to the spill. They're mostly involved in either the oil industry or the fishing industry. They want to earn a living. They understand accidents happen. They're not white hot pissed off at BP. They're concerned and they want compensation for losses resulting from the mess. They want to help and they don't want busy work that shuts them up.

And they're scared.

1. That just about sums it up.

We're also very concerned about tourism. People are worried that no one will want to come down here anymore.

2. Some ARE white hot pissed at BP.
