BP issued the first informed measurement.
The fact is that BP did NOT issue the informed estimate -- In fact it came from a scientist who watched the first under water live video feed -- to make matters worse , is that BP continued to make the wrong statements weeks after

I said nothing like that Pablo
Well what you actually said was that "5,000 barrels was first reported via satellite imaging when the leak first happened - BP went with that figure , it is certainly not BP estimates ."

No I said what BP did was a measurement. They measured how much they were collecting at the surface multiplied it by two because they knew they were only getting half of it and came out with the first informed measurement... alright 'meastimate' of the spill.
What if the shoe was on the other foot and oil was spilling in tremendous amounts in the English Channel would you care than or say no big deal like the jerk Tony Hayward?

Don't waste your time, Jerry. I've repeatedly called him on his refusal to acknowledge the impact in human and environmental terms, and his only answer is that he (and he has the gargantuan gall to claim he speaks for all Brits) is a stoic, and is therefore above any display of emotion.
In fact, it's got nothing to do with stoicism. Rather, it points to a profound sociopathic disorder that renders him clinically numb — and proud of it!
This is why I've once again (and permanently this time) opted for the "ignore" option in his case, and I cannot tell you what bliss it is not to see his dispassionate, bigoted, imperialistic screed dripping down the forum walls like some toxic liquified mould.
But watch, he'll probably puke up another line-by-line rebuttal — which of course he'll claim is for everyone's benefit rather than a response to me — even though he knows I'm not reading it. Frankly, the only benefit I can imagine ever being offered by km is the sight of the back of his head getting smaller and smaller.
