Somebody is going to figure out how to use it at some point. <br /><br />A good business man does not have millions of gallons of dispersant laying around not to use whether it works or is toxic or not. You spray that baby in the gulf. Do you want it to appear you are making a useless product? It is not good business. The fish will have to take a back seat on this one. <br /><br />The word is restaurants, fast food seafood places and suppliers have been told orders for fish and shrimp will not be filled at some point in the near future. <br /><br />I didn't know whether to laugh or cry as I looked at a site where I am banned that supposedly supports LSU politics and sports. They never appreciated me asking certain posters to please tell us in your own words what it is like to drink human blood. There was no discussion concerning the gulf in the political forum, none.
