    • I keep hearing people say here the word mud volcano in the Gulf of Mexico that wrong that should read asphalt volcano in the Gulf of Mexico.

      • And Walter, you too! Every one of you who have posted tonite are part and parcel of The Amazing Groupies Who Will Not Be Silenced. Thanks NYT, for the idea!

      • good point. Some papers say both in the same sentence.
        What is disturbing is these ‘ tar mats’ that keep coming up. The newspapers say it is BP oil turned into gunk by Corexit. But what if it is ooze coming out of a volcano? How would they know the diff?
        Add into that dangerous critters are forming in the tar mats ….

    • The better thing about a blog format over a forum etc. is all these posts have good tags so on any side topic, if you want to look something up like “mud volcano” or “Henning Kemner” you can put it in the search box and get all the posts with that topic.
      Then readers continue to build our data base with more and more great finds!

  7. The first people to cry conspiracy nuts are uneducated people lacking the will or ability to understand the situation.  People that put out these so called conspiracy theories are knowledgeable people who know specifics that we do not.  If you’ve noticed, conspiracies usually turn into factual events.
