Okay, ladies and gents, for 6 months now I have seen you. Toiling away, sharing information, doing what you can to make an impact of some kind over this horrific event.
I see your heart. I have felt your spirit. And I say the time is now, to make a statement across the Gulf.
13 Days!! But it's not what I expected!! BP was paying me $1200 a month x 6 months - should have got $7,200 I only received half of that!
When I asked why? And how? They arrived at that figure? The adjustor didn't know?!! And if I wanted more money, I'd have to file for my final payment!!
Most of you know my story by now. Four years ago, back when the banks were getting bailed out and the people were getting bailed on, I lost the first house I ever owned. After moving to South Louisiana and rebuilding our lives, my husband and I were able to move ourselves and our 6 children into a beautiful new home. Three days later the moratorium hit - and I say hit, because it was like a punch in the stomach to the people of our area.
In the past few weeks, independent scientists, fishermen, journalists, and advocates have taken testing of Gulf waters, sand, and seafood into their own hands. The results prove that the Gulf still has dangerous levels of oil and toxic dispersants from the BP disaster, despite claims from federal agencies and BP.
Here is a state by state overview of some of these investigations.

Yesterday, Mississippi natives Mendy Cockrell and Donna and Marty Dunn commemorated 9/11 with an unlikely crowd.
