Isn't there a higher concentration of oil eating microbes in the gulf than there is in Prince William Sound? I would think that environmentally speaking, the gulf can heal itself faster than a sound in Alaska.

The points on environmental destruction are well taken. The residents of LA will be dealing with the effects longer than anyone. But I think everyone has to admit that the spill could have been a lot worse. Not that long ago people were saying that oil would be detected on the eastern seaboard.

There is still a lot of unknowns.
