On year ago today the BP oil rig exploded and caught fire.
I still hear something about it on the radio at least once a week. They are either talking about
the fact that 40% of the coast that once had oil come ashore still has oil on it;
how the big sums of money will be split up and who will get their gready hands on it;
how this has affected the state in lost jobs;
how someone got caught spending BP funds to pad their personal needs or wants;
BUT you seldom hear about the 11 guys that lost their lives trying to support their families.
I have no connection to any of them but here is a picture from the front day of todays local paper.
