Chart: Days Until Deepwater Horizon Becomes World's Worst Oil Spill

http://www.treehugger.com/files/2010/05/how-many-days-bp-deepwater-horizon-becomes-worlds-worst-oil-spill.php

'With the news today that the sunken Deepwater Horizon might very well be exceeding BP's worst case estimate, gushing 70,000 barrels per day (2.94 million gallons) into the Gulf of Mexico--passing the Exxon Valdez about two weeks ago--I wondered how much longer until it made it into the top 10 worst oil spills in history. The bad news is that it already is. There really isn't good news in this one.'
